Krista Smith of
Saturated Canary is now selling her digis through Make It Crafty and I’ve got a
card using one of her new images, Carlie with Giraffe (I used the version minus the giraffe), to share today.
Used the big ‘birthday’
chippie also from Make It Crafty as the focus of my design and sat the image on
it. To help decorate my card I’ve
followed the current tic tac toe board at Crafty Card Makers going with the
left diagonal. I have a digi image, some
pearls for embellies and to make my line I’ve die cut the ‘happy’.
The colour scheme
of my card comes from the current palette at Color Throwdown. It’s a lovely happy and bright one that
worked well for a birthday card. Pretty much
stuck entirely to it except for a little skin tone, green and brown on the
branch and red for her lips. The multiple
colours gave me a good excuse to go mat crazy so this is one heavy card,
luckily it is being hand delivered.
As this is going
out to a female friend and features a girl image I am also entering my card in
the challenge at Watercooler Wednesday where the current theme is an anything goes
feminine one.
