Today is one of those lovely days that I should probably be
doing something other than sitting in the house, but sometimes a sketch just
calls to be done.
I used Stamping Bella’s uptown girl Charlotte loves to Shop
for my focal image. She is stamped using
Memento Tuxedo Black of course since I was going to color her using Copic
markers. Once she was colored up I cut
her out using Lifestyle Crafts rectangles and then used the next size up to
create the mat out of Gina K Ocean Mist cardstock. After my image was cut out I could now add
the little details to make her unique.
In her cup I used some white Liquid Applique to represent the whipped
cream we all love. Some glossy accents
were placed on her glasses to give them a little shine. I used the Sakura black glaze pen to deepen
her eyes, the blue one was used to fill in the circles on one of her shopping
bags; and a white gel pen was used to add bring out the stitching on her jeans.
The flags were created using paper from Lawn Fawn Beachside
pint-sized patterns. I used the Lawn Fawn
circle die to cut both the mat and sentiment circle. I placed some fun foam behind the whole panel
and then placed it all on my card base.
I'm entering this card in:
