Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing with you a really cute card
that would be great to send to friends or relatives that you and
your kids don’t see very often! I’ve used products from
To start, I chose my background papers. I wanted a neutral
background – I’m kind of obsessed with neutral backgrounds lately!
For this project I used 3 layers of coordinating neutral patterned paper.
I sized my images in the computer making the 2 kids overlap
each other. Then I die cut it with a fancy oval die. Next it
was time to color up the kids.
I started with their faces. I had just picked up a pack of Ohuhu
markers in the Portrait colors. I wanted to give them a try, so
I used 3 of the 6 colors in the box. I really like the base layer
skintone…the shading tone was not very dark, but the blush
color was really nice.
Next I colored their hair both the same…I was making them
brother and sister! I was not fussy about blending my coloring
and kept it quite simple by not really blending. When the
coloring was done, I stamped a greeting with a stamp from
my stash in a light brown ink.
At this point I assembled everything together, popping up the
focal panel on foam tape. I used a white 5” x 7” card base. I
used a white acrylic marker for the designs on the kids’
clothing. I also used Twinkle Stickles for all the white parts
on their clothing. I used a tiny snowflake die and made 6
snowflakes out of one of the background papers. I decorated
the frame edging and the middle of the snowflakes using a
contour liner in iridescent. And that finished this cute
card!
This card came out really sweet and I liked the bigger size of
both the card and the kids. If you give this a try, please tag
us on social media. We would love to see what you create!
