Take Time To Do What Makes You Happy

Good morning Crafty Friends. I hope you are having a good week!

Today, I am sharing a card that I have created, which I would describe as an escape from reality for my family. My husband and I are avid campers, or perhaps more accurately, glampers. We own a fifth wheel and do our best to get away as often as possible. We are all set for a week-long getaway with our sweet pups in September. 

My card features a discontinued set from Stampin' Up! Mountain Air. The image was stamped onto a 3 x 3 panel. I added some blue skies to the mountains with Copic markers. I placed a stitched scalloped die onto an A-2-size panel, placed it in the center, and ran it through my die-cutting machine. I then attached the panels with glue. 

The trees were stamped, die-cut using the corresponding dies, and then adhered to the panel, one with glue and the other with foam. The camping chair is from the Papertrey Ink, Life's Great Adventures Stamp Set. After fussy cutting it out (although it does have matching dies), I positioned it on foam strips to add dimension. The sentiment is from Penny Black, Enjoy Builder Set which was also popped up on foam strips. I added a few soft green sequins to complete the card.
