Hi Everybody,Todays card is created using Spectrum Noir and that Isopropyl method once more to make everything blend
Colors used ...
Birthday cake PP1 PP3 PP5
Shading BT2
White flowers BT2
White ribbon BT5
It is simply cut into a 15 cms square and layered with pink and dotty card, but the effect is a pretty card.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and were white at the start. And the little pearls and diamante centre on the bow is also from WOC
They have been sparkled with Glitter Magic and the satin ribbon is from MeiFlower
The image is a digital download from Paper Printables and is one of many free images and backing papers.
My Thanks to You ...
Thank you so much for all the response to a "Friday Freebie" and thank you also for all your fairness and concern about the expense it will cost me to do it on a weekly basis. The reason I offered it weekly is because I accumulate so many cards.When I film a video I make one card to show what I am going to do ... and then another to show how I did it, and then maybe one or two more to show some alternative ways to do it or a different color.
So from one tutorial I could end up with four cards. I sell some ... I also give many away to charity ... my girls end up with a box full at Christmas for them to use through the year .... but I still have lots here in my craft room.
And even though I say it myself there are some really pretty cards that need a home. That is the reasoning behind my offer and if they can give pleasure to someone else then it would be worth the cost of the card, embellishments, my time and the postage.
The first one will be offered next week in the first freebie offer.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx

ReplyDeleteYou are so generous Christina! Your colouring is awesome and I hope one day to be as good as you. I couldn't find that free image on the link :( xx
ReplyDeleteAwww very sweet, fun image and great coloring!
ReplyDeleteI love the birthday cake! It is so pretty, and sure to delight. You are very sweet to offer up your cards to us, even if you have extras; you give so much of your time and talent, which I really appreciate. To receive a card from you would be very special, indeed. Thank you for everything.
ReplyDeleteGood morning Christina,
ReplyDeleteI think i would give this card to a young teenager just before they think they are older than they actually are, or a twenty something coming near their 30th birthday and they think its the end of the world. It's a lovely card with beautiful flowers and lovely colours making it up. I think i have decided i must be a pastel type of person as it is the paler shades and white that i go for most. Thank you Christina,
Love and crafty hugs
