When I got this stamp, I did think that I would end up making more card variations with it — the stained glass style does lend itself to lots of different mediums and experiments — but then I didn’t actually need any more! By some miracle, I managed to make more cards than I ended up needing… But there is always next year 🙂
The last of my catch-up blog posts! Assuming that I haven’t made more cards than I’ve blogged between scheduling this post and it being published, I am completely caught up.
Ahem. This is the last of my catchup blog posts that I had intended completing before I started the 30-day colouring challenge in September. I had been keeping this card for when I was completely caught up as my expression would match his if I ever actually managed to do that 🙂 But if I wait until there are no more cards that need to be blogged then I will never ever post this.
This was created on 7th July: day 3 of The Daily Marker 30 Day Colouring Challenge.
What is it with all the masculine cards in the middle of summer? This one was for my neighbour, who does like an occasional tipple; I didn’t have any whisky bottle images to hand, so had to go with the second option of wine bottles instead.
This card was created on 30th July: day 26 of The Daily Marker 30 Day Colouring Challenge.
I loved the black-stamped version of this bear so I decided to be brave and make one of my infrequent attempts at no-line Copic colouring and try to recreate it using the same colour palette. For me, no-line either turns out nicely or is a complete and utter disaster, there doesn’t seem to be any middle ground. Luckily this one turned out nicely.
Once again, I’m cutting it fine creating a challenge entry in time… where does the month go? It took a while to figure out what I was going to do for this; there were three palettes to choose from and either of the others would have been easy choices for a floral card (both had pinks and greens), but I was drawn to the third with its more graphic greys and oranges.
On a whim I signed up for the interactive Clear and Sheer class from Online Card Classes; I’ve always stuck to the self-paced classes before. It will be interesting to see everyone else’s creations at the same time as making my own.
