Here's the Dirt

This week's High Hopes challenge is Use Up Your Scraps from Jeanne.  Oh, fun challenge!  We all have lots of those!  I decided to create my husband's Father's Day card for this challenge.

I paired this cute Gordon Groundhog with some Basic Grey Archaic patterned paper scraps.  I colored the image with coordinating copic markers and stitched my layers.  Then, I sponged all the edges with dark chocolate ink to dirty them up.

I snapped a quick photo of the copic markers I used.  Join us in the challenge for a chance to win some cute High Hopes stamps.  (Did you know that there is a set of stamps given away every week on the challenge blog?  Just join us in the challenge and link to your card on the High Hopes blog for a chance to win.)
