Free to Fly

Good morning, today starts a new challenge at Stella Says Sketch and its a great sketch.

I turned the sketch upside down so the border is on the bottom and created this sympathy card I needed for a neighbour. I printed the Bugaboo Dragonflies on dp paper and then again on vellum. Coloured both in copics and cut out the vellum dragonflies to pop up. Added the grass on the bottom with the sentiment and it was done.

Irish Wedding

Good moring! Today is the first of the month and that should mean a new release for Doodle Pantry...but not today. Doodle Pantry's July release will be July 3rd and the Doodle Pantry Digital Challenge will begin at noon on the 3rd so come back then for some inspiration. But in the mean time I'd like to show you a card I did for a couple who went to Ireland for their wedding. The card is so large I had to make a box to hold it. The cream paper is a soft cream/gold from Michaels which I embossed the flourish onto with white/sparkle embossing powder.

I asked permission from the stamp company to change the groom from one with hair to one without. Here's the original stamp from Imagine That Digis by Kris. I think he came out pretty good. 

Inside

For the tags I just embossed the paper. This is the inside of the first tag which we signed.

Wedding Doves

Good morning! Today Doodle Pantry is sponsoring 613 Avenue Create and their theme is anything goes/optional twist Birds of a feather: birds, feathers, wings, open to your interpretation. I used Doodle Pantry's coloured Flying Dove and printed it off one way and then turned the dove and printed it again. (notice I didn't write I flipped the bird, lol! Yes I have a sick sense of humour)

The birds look 3D IRL because I used a large ball stylus to shape them. I really like how this turned out! Hop on over to 613 Avenue Create and give their challenge a try. If you hurry you can enter Doodle Pantry's challenge as well. Good luck!
