Magical

Where did June go? Here we are on July 1 and time for a new challenge over at Crafts Galore Encore. This month our sponsor is Polkadoodles and the winner will receive a voucher to the value of 3 digis. I got to work with this sweet image called Surprise Gifts.

Those who read my blog regularly will know by now that I am experimenting with the combination of digital elements and hand coloring. The cardpanel on this card is all one layer - the layers having been created digitally. I am again creating in Silhouette Studio. I created a rectangle sized at 4x5.25 inches and filled it with a digital paper from the Color Burst collection by We are 3. I then added the image onto the panel and sized it as per my liking. I then added a 0.25 inch offset to the image and colored that box with a color from the digital paper that I chose with the eyedropper tool. Finally I added a digital sentiment from the Magical Sparkle sentiment collection by We are 3. I printed the panel out onto Daler-Rowney Drawing paper and colored sweet Winnie with my Prismacolor colored pencils.

Once she was completed, I returned my page to the Silhouette and cut the large rectangle out, being sure to turn the cutlines off for everything else - didn't want any of the layers cut out on this one.

I completed the card by adding the panel to a dark teal cardbase.

Be sure to head over to Crafts Galore Encore challenge blog and entered your project there. The theme is Anything Goes and you have a month to enter.
