Bronte and Louis......



Hello,

Happy Monday, how was your week end?

Today's card is another digital illustration from Mo Manning.....I love using these images with my Copics and at the moment I'm trying to improve my shading so the two go together really well. I was reasonably happy with Louis but poor Bronte could have been better I think.....all that grey!
Base card is this striking blue craft card with a layer of dp from American Craft.
I used a Spellbinder die to cut the image and set the points behind it to form the 'star burst'.
A star spiral clip has the ribbon attached along with the sentiment ticket.

Hope you like today's card, any hints on shading with Copics would be gratefully received.......

Ian's off to Melbourne next week end for about a week so I'll probably go too. It's been just about a year since I was there last. I enjoyed playing tourist jumping on and off the trains and trams, might see if I can find some paper craft shops around Williamstown!

That's it for now, thanks for stopping by.
Till next time.........
