Hello, I’m a little later than I wanted to be finishing this card, but if I weren’t that would be the surprise. LOL. I have friends that are working on a new home and I want to give them a card congratulating them for getting it and all the hard work they're doing before hand. I can't believe I actually have something done before I need it!
Some of you may recognize this as an image by Mo Manning. I love her images because there is so much personality in each one she does.
Here’s a close up of the image, which I’ve colored with Prismacolor pencils. The sign and the birds have been colored twice and then pop-dotted to give them depth. Most of the things I have used are by Recollections. I’ve cut the card, the sentiment, and frames with my Cricut. The image itself was cut with Spellbinders. The large flower was in a prize, so I'm not sure who made it. And the leaf swirl is by Cheery Lynn Designs.
Surprisingly the only place that I used designer paper is the circle under the sentiments, and it is glittered. I believe it’s K and Company.
These are the challenges I’m entering:
Mo’s Digital Challenge – celebration
Shelly’s Images Blog – anything
Moving Along With The Times – sparkle
