Home Sweet Home
As you can see there are plenty of options in this set! It's so fun to create with!
To begin I composed my image in my computer and printed it out onto Neenah
80lb. Classic Crest Solar White card stock. And I laid out my patterned paper
and I also used a matching ephemera frame.
I wanted to keep this card very simple so I colored my image with Copic markers.
I didn't do any shading and used only 2 markers. Since I knew I was going to be
fussy cutting this right up to the edge, I colored outside the lines! 😱
Copic markers used:
House: BG72
Leaves: G94
Then I fussy cut my image out and afterward went around the edges
with a water-based black marker.
As I was laying things out I realized that my colored image wasn't going to stand out
quite enough against the other papers. I glued it onto a scrap of white card stock
and fussy cut it leaving a very narrow white edge.
Next I put my base together. My gingham piece was cut to 4 1/8" x 5 3/8". The
black dotted paper was cut to 3 1/2" x 4 1/4". I adhered it centered onto the gingham
paper. The ephemera frame I popped up on foam tape.
I then adhered my colored image onto the ephemeral frame with liquid glue with
one strip of foam tape behind. For embellishments I used a few enamel dots and a
small enamel heart. And that finished my card!
I hope you enjoyed today's tutorial. I was very inspired by the color palette
of the papers (Carta Bella - Home Again). It was the
perfect backdrop for this image! The card is actually going to
someone who just bought a new house!
