With Sympathy - Make it Crafty

Hello all :)

Today I have a Sympathy Card to share with you, this pre designed image is perfect for a simple quick sympathy card and lets face it, when we need these cards the last thing we want to do is a technical time consuming card.

Unfortunately after making this card I needed two more :(

Possum Love

Hey all :)

I'm here today to share my latest MiC card using the super cute Possum and Joey digital stamp, I'm loving discovering how to colour fur. Looking at so many photo references until I found one that I thought showed me enough detail. Plus using the Possum and Joey digital stamp made it a little easier for me as my husband and I often see real life possums on our daily walks.

Anyway here's the card, I hope it inspires you to grab your favourite  MiC animal image and join in on this months challenge.

Possum and Joey with 'Sending a big Hug' outline sentiment a 2" Leaf Branch Chippy, a 3" Leaf Branch Chippy and a 1.9" Budding Branch Chippy.

Possum and Joey were coloured with Copic Markers and Polychromos Pencils.

I used the Copic's on the base of the image - W00, 1, 2, 3, 4, Y21 & V000.

The Polychromos are used to give the fur texture - Warm Grey IV 273, Warm Grey VI 275 & Black 199.

For the Background I used my airbrush with YG23, 25, 17 to create a Bokeh effect then blended Distress Oxide Forest Moss around the edges.

I chose to keep the Chippies natural.

I hope you are having a wonderful day!
