Today's post is just a bit of fun I decided to have on Friday night after spending ALL day in bed with the most wicked headache. I finally got to feeling normal around 9:30P and sat down to do a bit of coloring. I'd seen the Bellariffic Friday's sketch for October 10th and thought I'd give it a shot.
So I took the Uptown Girl - Audrey Loves Her Makeup and colored her using my prismacolor pencils and odorless mineral spirits. I fussy cut her and sandwiched her between two pieces of acetate. The frame was made in the card front in both pieces using the Taylored Expressions - Frame it Up 2 die. I placed the patterned paper on the front of the card temporarily - and die cut both pieces at once to ensure it would be accurate. Then before adhering the patterned paper (My Mind's Eye - The Sweetest Thing) to the card base I added Audrey between the two pieces of acetate. This created a beautiful window that would show the sentiment on the inside of the card.
I was able to draw a clean black line around the frame to accentuate the shape just a bit. To do so, I fit the die back into the window and use a thin black marker to trace around the die. I think it adds just a bit extra.
The inside of the card ready "Some days you just have to create your own sunshine" and is from another Uptown Girl pair - Sunny is Stylish.
I think she turned out lovely! Thank you all for stopping by today!!
