Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for
I forgot a birthday recently, so thought I had better get a card ready just in case I do it again. As usual, I went through my files to find an animal that I could do my DT post and send a card, in one. Thankfully, I found this goofy dog.
I printed him out with a sentiment that I thought matched. They were both fussy cut twice for layering, you know I hate fussy cutting, it was only because I printed them wrong, and my Silhouette wouldn't recognise them! Luckily, they were a "simple" cut.
The dog and sentiment were coloured with DI's. I decided to add wobbly eyes, to make him even more goofy, and added glaze to the collar, nose, tongue, and bone. The sentiment font, "freshstart" I decided, was fun to match.
A leftover strip of card from another project was placed behind him. I loosely followed this sketch -
image - Elizabeth Dulemba
inks - Distress Inks, tea dye, walnut stain, gathered twigs, worn lipstick,
hickory smoke, lost shadows, fired brick.
glaze - Nuvo Crystal Glaze
paper strip - Craft Sensation paper pad
eyes - stash
What a funny card, Love it!
