A Masculine Hello Card

Hey there and welcome. I hope you have a great week so far. In this post, I’d like to share a hello card. The digi I used is called Eucalyptus Tree Koala, and it‘s one of the cutest koala images I’ve ever seen! For coloring, I grabbed Prisma colored pencils. After matting the panel onto dark green cardstock, I glued that onto the card base. As a finishing touch, I added three gems, and my card was done.

I hope you like how it turned out.

Thank you for visiting, and I hope to see you all again soon.

Have a wonderful day.

Hugs,

Jinny

Summer Fun Challenge at Creative Knockouts

Hey there and welcome. I hope you have a wonderful week so far. In today’s post, I’d like to share my DT creation for Creative Knockouts. The theme for the next two weeks is “Summer Fun”, and The Paper Shelter as our generous sponsor offers 3 digi images to one winner, so I really hope you will find some time to join us.

The image I played with is called My Happy Summer Face. Isn't it just adorable? In my part of the world, the heat is scorching, so I cannot make such a happy face, but his expression is just too cute! To make this card, I started with stenciling the background. While it was drying, I colored the image with alcohol markers. Then I tore some patterned paper and adhered it to my stenciled background. Next, I glued down my fussy-cut image. To fill in some empty spots,    I stamped palm trees from a Paper Smooches stamp set and colored them using alcohol markers again. I then matted the panel onto a piece of yellow cardstock. After stamping the sentiment, I added white highlights here and there and drew some birds. As a finishing touch, I applied Crystal Stickles, and my card was done.

I hope you like how it turned out, and I really look forward to seeing what you come up with for this challenge!

Hugs,

Jinny
