Today I’m sharing a card using KLM Digital Design – Hula Gnome from the new December release. This image also comes with 2 more sentiments, “Your so much fun to be around” and “I like being around you”.  This hip gnome knows how to use a Hula Hoop! I did too in my younger days, now, not so much! LOL! For some strange reason, I just can’t seem to find the rhythm! How about you?

Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock was used to create a 5.5″ x 4.25″ card base.  I inked around all of the edges with blender brushes and a mixture of Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Ink – Wilted Violet, Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Fossilized Amber and Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Prize Ribbon.

The image and sentiment were imported into Microsoft Word and printed out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. Using a Cuttlebug, I die cut the image using My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Die Layers. The image was coloured in with Copic Markers listed below and then popped up onto the base using U-Line double-sided foam tape. To finish off the card, I added in some Kraftin’ Kimmie dots.
