I began by stamping Tiny Townie Caterpillar and then masking off the entire image so that I could add the Gnome Backdrop right over top. Nothing fancy and all pretty straight forward as far as stamping techniques go. Almost instantly I had a whole world for this little guy to live in and with very little work on my part. That’s why I’m such a big fan of all the backdrop stamps that are available, they make the whole scene building process that much easier. As I began coloring, the idea struck me that there were just enough mushrooms in the scene that I could color an entire rainbow of fungi. Once they were all looking lovely I decided to color Tiny Townie Caterpillar as a moth, in shades of black and white to contrast with all of the bright colors around him. The sentiment comes in the Oddball Maya set, and I think it fits so well with the rainbow theme that came together on this sweet card.
I love this one so much!
