I knew what I wanted to do with this stamp, but getting it there was another thing. LOL The challenge at Little Miss Muffet is clouds. I started off trying to do them with watercolor. NOT! Annika I bow to you, but I could not get mine to look like yours--at all! Secondly I tried with Copics, but just didn't like the outcome so I decided to try distress inks and finally I was happy with it.
I found an image of a rock climber online and did a rough sketch out of Agent Cupcakes "mountain". It's colored with Copics and could definitely have been improved upon. It was part of the image I colored the clouds with Copics on so I just cut away the cloud part and attached it over the distress ink clouds. Agent Cupcake is also cut out and raised on pop dots. I used some hemp cord to attach over the rope part of the image. Thought it was a fun little extra.
I used my ancient Fiskar embossing plates for the braided texture on the bottom half of the card. The little sign is a digi freebie I got from Lily's Art Creations last year. I just printed it out at the size I needed, colored it with Copics, printed out my sentiment on the computer, cut it apart, and glued it onto the sign.
