Here is a cute little card I put together. Have you ever had a friend that either was sick or just had surgery and was not taking it easy and letting others help them? This is a great card for that friend. I made it with Country Life. This cartridge has some really cute images. I can’t wait to make time to play more with it. I also cannot wait for my Imagine to play with some of these layered characters. I’m going to try to remake this one with the Imagine to see the difference. I love some of the characters found on many Cricut cartridges, but those bitty layered pieces can be difficult to cut and/or apply. I have found that for faces, hands, eyes, etc, it is easier to just print on white paper and color with my Copic markers. Here, I colored her face and hands with Copics as well as the cow’s hoofs, horns, udder, and eye and the milk bucket. I also still like to add just a hint of shadowing with my Copic markers to many of my cuts and will continue to do so.
I left the inside blank so that I can personalize it later. This is for my card stash, which I need to really build up. I had no one in mind when I made it. I used Basic Grey’s Nook and Pantry collection for this card and also added a little Antique Linen Distress Inks on edges of inside card. Cardstock is Bazzill.
To enhance the title, I used Rangers new White Enamel. I love the milky look this gave me. This does take a little bit to dry, but no too long.
Thanks for stopping by to visit today.
