My friend had a little girl last week. I had no baby girl cards in my stash, and I had to do one quickly and knew I did not have the time to "craft" one traditionally .... and yet I cant get a shop bought one now can I?
Serif to the rescue!! I have produced this card in Serif so it is completely flat. I have used a saturated canary image, which I then coloured using my prisma pencils.
The fab thing about doing a card in Serif is that I removed the name, and saved, then within seconds I changed all the colour ways, so I now have a blue, pink and neutral version saved in case of emergency!!
I did have a good long play in the loft last night ... but I am not finished, so hopefully I will have a handcrafted project to share with you soon.
Love to All

It might be a quick option Julia, but very pretty.

Gorgeous quick card Juls. Great idea to save it in different colours so you can get one done quickly if you don't have time to make one of your special ones. I'm sure your friend will love it.

Hi Juls, this is so sweet, she'll love it! I've been a bad blogger this last year...I've been browsing and I LOVE what you did with the nursery, the owls are so cute and colorful! ~hugs
ReplyDeleteYou defo can't buy a shop one, I have gone there and thought, no way, I could buy 4/5 sheets of 12x12 for that and make a zillion plain cards. OK<so we have to put a bit more thought behind it but hey, I'm with you on that and glad that you have found a formula that works.keeleyxx
