Hi All!
Welcome to my post about my card for challenge #255, the 1st of June 2025 challenge for the Lil Patch of Crafty Friends Challenge Blog.
Here is my card:
We were given Balloon Ride which I have digitally printed on to X-Press It Blending card and die cut with the new Slimline Bookplate Die from La-La Land Crafts, before colouring with the following Copics markers:
- skin - E000, E00, E21, E11, E04
- hair - C3, BG11, BG13, BG15
- pink - RV11, RV14, RV17
- purple - V20, V22, V25, V28
- turquoise - BG11, BG13, BG15
- balloon - V01, V04, V06, V09, white gel pen, glossy accents
- background - B0000, B000, B00
- outline - BG15
As usual, I have taken inspiration from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her fantastic monthly classes and bonus classes.
Here is a close up of the colouring, before and after I added the glossy accents to the balloon:
To finish the card, I adhered a piece of cloudy paper from Going Places Paper Pack from La-La Land Crafts on to a white card from Envelope Solutions. I popped up the coloured image with foam tape.
I die cut white cardstock with the Scalloped Sentiment Labels Die and then stamped two sentiments from Hold on Tight Clear Stamp Set - from the Winnie the Pooh Release earlier in the year also from La-La Land Crafts using Elderberry Memento ink. I adhered both with foam tape.
Here is another photo of the finished card, as I realised I had not finished the little buttons on his pants, nor the end of his hat:
