MAWTT challenge 70 - Card for a child

It's Thursday and another fabulous MAWTT challenge and this week the talented Shell has chosen the theme which is to make a card for a child. The prize this week is some digis from La La Land and they very kindly sent us some images to play with this week. Do pop over to the main challenge blog and look at the wonderful creations from the rest of the team.

I chose this cute image and made a Christmas card.

I made the base of the card with the image using Photoshop Elements and the papers, trees and sentiment  are from The Shabby Princess. The only extras are some shading using promarkers over the top of the image already coloured in digitally, Flower Soft, glitter, DI forest green and crystal stickles.

I love the technique of colouring in my image on the computer then adding promarker shading over the top. It's fabulous experimenting with colours over colour.

Challenges to have fun with -
Stamp Something - Use a digi
Totally Gorjuss - Sparkle
The Crafty Pad - Christmas
Craft your Passion - Add glitter/sparkle
Crafty Cardmakers - Digital Plus (I have used 2 digi papers, digi image, digi elements (trees) and digi sentiment)
Papertake weekly - Sparkly and bright
Creative Belli - Flower Soft


I hope the week has gone well, especially if it is half term week for you.

Take care. Luv B xxxxx

Hi Brenda, you and the other girls have all done a fantastic job with the new images. Back from holiday now...the longest week ever! I fell before we left injuring both feet...I am going to my doctor today. Quote of the week.."Nice cane old lady", from a little boy who liked the cane I used. It can only get better from here,no?
