A certain little lad in the family was two... so needed an ultra cute card ... and for once I though the right way around!!
I chose my papers first (2006 Stamping up!) .. then went through various colouring mediums to see what colours matched the paper the best, pencils three sets were ditched, as were Tombows and ended up with Promarkers, which matched perfectly. :D A blessing indeed. Unfortunately my images are bit washed out as was very sunny day.
This was a fun card ... layout is one I borrowed from Debby of Scrap Journey, see here.. |
Both Penguin images are by Bugaboo (see here)... I love bugaboo for 3-D'ing, it really lends itself to it! Don't have balloon die, so used a small circle die not cut all the way through. Perfect match of bakers twine made me thank the LORD for His mercies, again! |
This verse was adapted from online. Snippets used on this card so over t play in the playground woohoo! :D |
I am going to join over with several challenges see list below.
Thanks so much for
popping over for peek and chat .. will return your visit as soon as I
can, as do love to see your work too. :D
May God bless your day and those you love, wherever you may be.

What a cute image Shaz, with that sweet little penguin popping out from behind that cake with the ice cream in his hand and that little hat on his head . . . all beautifully coloured too! Have a lovely weekend! Hazel xx
ReplyDeleteA fun card indeed! Thanks for the tutorial!
ReplyDeleteYour card for Hudson is absolutely gorgeous. The penguin along with the cake is adorable.
ReplyDeleteI love the colours they are so very bright and cheerful, perfect for a young man!!!
If this was my I card I would be woohooing all day long :)
Love your easel card, it's awesome, and the penguin is just too cute!
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgous fun card Shaz. Super fun papers match the cute image perfectly xx
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever to pick the papers first! These were perfect with this darling image. I always start with the image, then struggle to find 'go-withs'. Loved the combination of the patterns, your coloring is wonderful, and it's delightful as an easel card. The little guy will be thrilled because the image is just the thing for a youngster. Fun. TFS & I especially liked the verse with this post. So thanks for that as well. Hugs
