I have not done anything crafty for two months so my skills are rusty! I decided for my first card back to go all out and add lots of embellishments. The adorable image is from Knitty Kitty Digis, called Puddles of Kitty Love. Even the name is cute! I sponged Distress Ink on the background, using the die as a mask, and then coloured the image with Prismacolor pencils. I added accents with a white gel pen and some sparkle on the puddles with clear Wink of Stella.
Here are the supplies used:
- Digis: Image (Knitty Kitty Digis - Puddles of Kitty Love), sentiment (Digital Delights Ticket Sentiments)
- Dies: Squares (Nellie's Multiframe Squares, Gina Marie Designs Scalloped Stitched Nested Squares), leaves (Gina Marie Designs Lacey Leaves, Cheery Lynn Flourish Leaf Strip)
- Ink: Distress Ink (Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean)
- Patterned paper: Forever in Time
- Embellishments: Flowers, charms, buttons, brads, baker's twine (stash items)
Puddles of Kitty Love |
