Keep It Real

Hello Friends and Happy Thursday..or should I say Friday Eve?  Today I'm sharing a standard, top folding A2 sized card created using the Keep It Real digital stamp and sentiment from Polkadot Orchard.


To start my design, I've used a panel of Alcohol Ink paper; paper that is specially designed to allow the ink to move when applied..similar to Yupo. Using Pinata Alcohol Inks, I.ve blended a background and set aside to dry.


The image has been printed, colored with alcohol markers, fussy cut and popped on craft foam for dimension; the sentiment has also been popped up.  I've had the Recollections Flowers in my stash for about 5 years and happened across them while looking for embellishments.  They have been adhered flat to the panel.

I invite you to stop by the Polkadot Orchard Shop for so many adorable, lovely and fun digi images.  I especially like the way I've colored this image; I wanted a "cartoon-like" appearance and I achieved it by not blending the shades while coloring.

Thanks for stopping by, until next time - Happy Crafting!

AYLI - prefer cool colors because I look good wearing them.  Autumn and those colors are my favorite time of year so it's a toss up.  Depends on my mood really.
