Caly’s Happy Dandy Day Card

Hello Fawnatics Friends! This is Caly with you today sharing a card made using the Dandy Day set! The current sketch challenge ends on April 19th at 11:59pm PST so there’s a few days left if you’d like to play along!

For the challenge reveal, I was pretty literal with the sketch, but I wanted to create a scene today, so I used Simple Puffy Clouds to replace the circle elements on the sketch.

I stamped and colored my images using Copic markers before adding some glitter glue on the dandelions for some sparkle.
Copic colors used: R20, E41, E42, E43, Y02, Y38, YG06, YG09, E37, E31, C1, C2

For my background, I used a blue panel from the Dandy Day Petite Paper Pack. To give it more interest, I ink-blended the top with Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink and the grass section with Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Ink using the Grassy Stencil.

Once my background was created, I adhered my clouds and began attaching my dandelions and adorable field mice to complete my scene. The final step was to attach my embossed sentiment at the bottom of my clouds.

I hope you enjoyed this project! Thanks so much for stopping by today! ~Caly
