Bonus! HCW day 4: Memory Box Holly and Bell Bird

Posted on Nov 1, 2012 | 13 comments

I know, I know. I just shared a tutorial this morning. But I was inspired by the Holiday Card Workshop tutorial by Jennifer today, so I’m back with a bonus blog post!

Jennifer did bird cards, and while mine isn’t CAS like hers – I still like it! She really inspired me with the “short” edge on the card that showed patterned paper through it. I colored up my Memory Box Holly and Bell Bird stamp with Copics and created a clean design with it.

This also shows a little more of what I talked about on my video at HCW today – there’s only a tiny outline of warm grey here, yet the bird looks whiter than the papre it’s stamped on. It’s an illusion, it’s really the same white!

Hope you’re keeping up with the class….and if you’re not in it, you can still join in HERE! It’s only $25 for two weeks worth – 2-3 videos a day, lots of downloadable inspiration and instruction, not to mention shopping discounts!

Copic colors: BG78 G19 YG05 R89 R46 R24 YR14 Y17 Y13 E74 FB2 B0000 W1

PS Dixie, did I beat you into the gallery? lol.
