Good Morning Everyone! I am a little late with my posting today. Did you all a chance to to visit the Deedee Digis Luau yesterday? In case you missed it, I will share my cards with you here.
The first card I did I used the new set What's Shakin' - it comes with the fabulous palm tree, the cute teddy bear and 2 sentiments. I used the sketch from Mercy's Tuesday Sketch (#80) to begin this layout. I really did something way out of the box here for me and created by own scene. I'm not an artist by any stretch of the imagination, but I did try to create a sky that was blooming with the sunrise and the sand warming at her feet.
I also wanted dimension so I printed the tree twice and then layered them with different sizes of pop-dots.
This next card was created for my monthly card traders group, which was to do a paper frame. I'd made a card with this technique before so this one was quick and easy for me.
I Googled pictures of Hyancinths so that I made something fairly realistic. I found a beautiful picture of the yellow Hyacinth with is the state flower and it had these strokes of red on the petals and then the color pooled in it's center. I can't color as well as God can, but I think I did pretty OK.
