I have one final card to share as a guest on Mo’s Digital Pencil’s DT while Elin is away on holiday and I chose the adorable Tillie for my project.
This time I wanted to make a fun background again so I used a stencil and a background stamp to make the background and then I made three stacking sentiments. The stamp was cut out by hand, put on foam tape and placed on the side before I added some enamel dots at random.
I’ve made a card where I tried something new. I decided to stamp the dress of the adorable little girl because the background stamp seemed so perfect for a dress! The stamp set I’ve used is Just for You from the new La-La Land Crafts release. I absolutely love this new background stamp!
To get this effect on the dress, I first stamped the background stamp in the colour I wanted the dress, and then I stamped the girl over the top of it. Then I fussy cut out the dress before I used my Copics to draw in some shadowed areas on the dress. Afterwards I glued it onto the girl stamp I’d started colouring up and voila!
The background stamp is stamped with a deep red Distress Ink, whereas the dress is stamped with a yellow shade of Distress Oxide Ink.
Stamps:
Just for You
Paperdoll Marci – Happy (also the sentiment)
Dies:
Happy Birthday
Two Butterflies
Pierced Scalloped Circles
Copics used: (skin) E13, E15, E27, (hair) BV20, BV23, BV25, BV29, (dress and shoes) Y13, Y19.
For a while now I have been wanting to try to colour in darker skin colours. Recently I decided to buy some new pens so I no longer had the option of procrastinating it due to a lack of materials. This card here is my first attempt at colouring a dark skin tone, and I am quite pleased how it turned out.
