For this week's tea-party, which was a colour challenge. Hey Sheri - is that you reflected in the brown teapot? I'm sorry I didn't have just that shade of brown - I know there's a distress ink close, but it's not one that figures in my collection!
A simple, outdoor manly card was what we were asked for, so I set Sherlock Beagle in an outdoor setting, and hope that after a bit of searching he will be able to find the wood.
A2 base, watercolour paper. Snoopy stamped and masked. Trees stamped multiple times with Versafine Olympia Green, then sponged with Pine Needles. Sky sponged with Stormy Sky, foreground with Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain shadows under the trees. Snoopy's cape and hat are various shades of brown.
Lots of Thoughts sentiment punched with Word Window Punch and threaded through the card using the slot punch. Edges distressed and swiped with Walnut Stain.
Glossy Accents on the lens of the magnifying glass.
I know we were told to write BIG on the insides of our cards for Sol, which I will, but I'm afraid I didn't have a suitable BIG sentiment to use on the front.

Sabrina - this is wonderful! You managed to make a one layer card absolutely look like a bunch of layers which takes talent! Love the scene and your adorable detective. I am thinking he could see the forest - that Snoopy is much smarter than most people realize! Love this card and I am sure Sol will be thrilled!!!

LOL, at least Snoopy does not have big animals stalking him in the woods!! Sherlock looks like he may be on the right track to finding the perfect spot out in the wilderness for Sol and Gypsy to enjoy! - love your forest and great Snoopy image!
