Get Well Soon - Sparkle Unicorn ft. Polkadoodles

 

Hello everyone!  Hope you are keeping healthy...unlike this poor little

unicorn!  Today I'm showing you how to make a card with products from

Polkadoodles

Get Well Soon- Sparkle Unicorn

I love this little unicorn envelope.  I made just a panel to slip inside for

the recipient!  So easy!  Let me show you how I made my card!

I started by printing out my image onto smooth white card stock

and die cutting it with a square die from my stash.  I knew I wanted

to color this with a rainbow of colors, so I made my envelope out of

some plain purple card stock.

I used a We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board to do this.

I also used the same purple card stock and printed off my

sentiment.

I print the sentiment onto white copy paper and then lay the colored

paper over top and taped so nothing gets caught going through my

printer.  I used a small sentiment die from my stash for this.

I started my coloring.  I painted the horn first so I could identify the

color mixes I would use.  I made a few changes along the way but I kept

them fairly simple.

I used a pale blue for the unicorn body.  I didn't want it to be gray and

the blue just gives a nice shadow.

I tried to balance my colors evenly.

I added the colored panel with holographic peel-offs and chose a

pink patterned backing paper and backed that with holographic

paper.  

Copic markers used:  B000, Y00, Y02, YG11, YG03, YG01, YG63, 

B32, B23, V01, V04, YR00, YR02, R81, R83, R85, RV10, Y15,

C1, B05, V05, R35

Once all the coloring was done I adhered all the layers to my

envelope and then just made a single panel card to go inside.

I used a postage stamp die from my stash and used the same

holographic paper.  Then I die cut the inside panel using pink

patterned paper.  I made up a sentiment and printed it onto a white

panel from a smaller postage stamp die.  I added my sentiment to

the envelope and popped it up on foam tape.  I added 3 small

pink hearts.  For the inner panel I added some sparkly paper

flowers in pink.  And that finished my card.

I hope I've inspired you to make a get well envelope and get

well panel to send to someone in your life who is sick.  It's sure to 

put a smile on their face!  You can find this digital stamp and so
