Hello my lovelies I hope you are all fine and dandy and have had a wonderful weekend ours was very quiet which was much needed after our mid week shopping spree.
Anyways I’ll get straight to it today with the card I have for you and I am so happy with this one. Again it’s for no other reason than just because I wanted to make it, so here it is.
So the image now those who know me on FB will have seen my WIP pics I post of this image but if you missed them here they are
Now for the finished product
The card is 8x8” (would
you expect anything else from me) and the papers are from pixel
scrapper which I have printed off and
distressed then inked with mowed lawn and faded jean DI
The sketch I followed is from Always with a heart, Jules has quite a few to choose from
now and, from what I can see she will be adding more over time (yayyy).
The image is by Mo Manning called Wiz and I have been dying to colour it ever since I saw
the amazing piece of art produced by Amanda Jensen.
I have coloured him entirely with polychrome pencils no
blending solution has been used only pencil on pencil blending I used Amanda’s
image as a reference point to help me create the depth and folds in the hat and
gown as like I always say I am still learning so any help is greatly received :oD
For the background of the image I did use a spectrum noir
marker then I masked the image added distress inks directly over to ground him
and add more depth
To embellish the card I just added some simple die cut
glitter stars as I didn’t want to take anything away from the image.
Then it was on to the insert, as always I used papers from
the front and also brought the image through fading it out and adding a short
greeting over it. On the opposite side I added the same hat that I used in the
harry potter card which I roughly coloured.
And so there you have it, my card for today I will leave you
with another look at the fabby image and a list of challenges I would like to
enter it into.
