 Dina's challenge for us was to use a background in the foreground. Here is her challenge. MIX653 Back to the Foreground (8/1/25) by dini at Splitcoaststampers
I started by blending different green, yellow and brown inks together to make a camouflage background. Then I added stamps from Gorgeous Grunge to the background. Next I stamped the jeep, little guy and giraffe on different parts of the background paper. I colored various parts of the images with Copic markers then used dies to cut them out. I used a reverse mask to make the sun in the background with a blending brush and so saffron and pale papaya inks. I used a cut out cloud to blend balmy blue ink to make clouds. I used sponged daubers to color the ground under the jeep so it looked like grass and dirt. I added dimensionals to the back of the images and added them to my scene. I stamped my sentiments last. This card will go on a dinner tray at a local hospital.

Sue this is so fun. Love the muted safari colors and that super image and sentiment (especially the comment about hugs). Hugz
