So with July upon us, over at Morgans ArtWorld we are supporting the patriotic cause this fortnight with a theme of a Red / White and Blue scheme. So I decided to put my own spin on it using Winter 10.
Card Tip:
You don't have to use die cuts in the original shape, I have used label 28 but trimmed the bottom circular section off, this allows the shape to suit my image better.
Card Ingredients:
Card Stock: white 5"x7" card base. Quill navy blue and red card stock.
Papers: KlouiseDigiArt snowflakes and stars digi paper.
Stamps: Morgan Fitzsimons Winter 10, sentiment from Spellbinders heirloom ornaments stamp set.
Ink: Versamark ink and Allison Ellis white embossing powder, Memento london fog for sponging.
Markers:
Skin: E000+E00+E11+R20
Hair: E13+E15+E18
Jacket: R35+R37+R59
Trim: C01
Jacket: R35+R37+R59

Oooo . . . this is gorgeous! Love that you used this color scheme for a Christmas card (I did the same thing for a card I will post on Monday). Your image is beautiful and your coloring is fabulous! I specially like that texture/sparkle on the fur portions of her coat. Thanks for playing with us at The House that Stamps Built.

ReplyDeleteWow, Cathie, the 'fur' on her coat looks so real! What a great idea to cut off part of the label! I'd not ever have thought to do something so simple and yet have it make such an impact! Thanks for sharing and joining us at Inspiration Destination. Hope to see you again and good luck!
