The first one here is for House Mouse Monday. Our challenge was to use Paper Tole. I was like, what? What in the world? After looking around I discoverd that I actually use this technique a lot and just never realized it had a name, ha! Basically, you stamp an image 2 or more times and color parts that you want to stand out, cut them out and attach them to your base image with pop dots or some kind of dimensional.
Here is my take on this:
The image is called, "Lavander Bouquet". Its a Gruffie and it was a RAK from...possibly Heather T....but I am not entirely sure...I colored him with my Bic markers as well as my watercolor pencils. I used my stardust stickles to try and give the flowers some more dimension because the markers made them a little darker than I had invisioned. The paper is my world famouse K and Company paper from Big Lots that I will die without when it is gone and the bling came from Heather T.
This last card was made for Mojo Monday. I hope its close enough to count. As I made the card, my space needs changed. Its a little crowded, but I still like it.
Here was our sketch:
And here is my card:
The image was a birthday RAK from CGrandmaCheryl from Cafe Mom. If anyone can tell me...what the name of the image is? Or who makes it?? The letters are made with partially recycled matierials by K and Company. I used my stardust stickles on a couple to add some pizazz. My favorite part of the image is her hair. Love the funk!
Hope you enjoy! Have a fabulous rest-of-monday!
