I often turn to my Silhouette cameo for card making these days as my hands are not as nimble as they were, but this month I decided I wanted to do some colouring so I downloaded some cute images from LOTV.
I printed each one out well-spaced on white paper and used my alcohol markers to colour them.
Then I raided my folders of dies, and my boxes of off-cuts, and found different ways of using each image. These are the three images I chose.
I somehow ended up with three of the top image and two of each of the others. They were all mounted differently so I have a group of seven unique cards all ready to go.
I used some peel-off and printed sentiments, and stamped and embossed others, and each card has some glitter glue or other sparkle on them.
I enjoyed doing the colouring, and am pleased with how they turned out.
I will now link these up with Rudolph Day Challenge #April,
These all look so good, Your dedication to making multiples is inspiring!
ReplyDeleteYou have inspired me to create multiples when I kit up my cards. So, when I stamp one image, i stamp 3 or 4 and when I cut one diecut, I try to cut three or four. Then I kit them up with the background paper, the ribbon, emboeelies, etc. Somehow I seem to run out of steam to make them up right away and usually just make up one or two perhaps. I save the rest of the kits to take to the crop up at the church which we used to have once a month. It is on hold right now, of course. Those kits come in handy when you are trying to chat and listen to everyones news as you create. I takes the need out to really concentrate on creating and just do... That way the day is more about friends that having to think to design and create.
Thanks for taking part in the April Rudolph Days Challenge.
What a beautiful collection of scenes Kate, I love them all. Thanking for joining in Rudolph Days Challenge this month.
