Hello everyone. I wanted to share my latest Doodle Pantry creation with you. This image is from the Lion & Lamb collection. I am obviously just using the lion on my project. I am a huge animal lover and always have been. In fact, I have had a crush on Jungle Jack Hannah since I was a teenager. When I saw this image, I knew it would be one of my favorites.
I colored my lion with Copic markers and tried to channel my inner Mufasa as I colored. This took me quite a while to get the way I wanted it. I then cut him out and popped him up on SU dimensionals. I don't think you can see the 3D in the photo very well. I wanted to go rustic so I distressed all the papers with my Tim Holtz distress tool and added some tea distress ink to all the edges. I put a piece of burlap behind the lion the zebra paper is almost like cloth. Both are from Home Basic. I also tied a piece of black jute around the card. Boy is it hard to tie a bow with that stuff!!! My final touch is a giraffe brad from Eyelet Outlet. I have been wanting to use this forever but never had the right project for it. It kind of got lost there but I don't care. I got to use it!
Thanks so much to Doodle Pantry for this fabulous image and thank you for stopping by. Have a good one!
