Made it for my son (he said it's my best one).
I felt a bit "particular" when I was altering the color of the blue foiled background (the original color wasn't saturated enough) and I had to carefully remove ink from the tiny stars. Oh well. Totally worth it imo.
Hope you like it!
Apologies for the crummy photo setup, I was in a rush. Another commissioned card, this time for a 50th birthday for a man who's really into bird watching and really likes robins (we're in Canada, so the American robin rather than the little plump guys with the red faces).
I have a small variety of bird dies and stamps but couldn't figure out how to make them into something both masculine AND sophisticated (they're all either cute, goofy/cartoonish, or pretty). So I painted my own. Sentiment was intentionally left off the card front in case they like it enough to dislay it longer / use as wall art.
Anyhoo the lady that ordered it from me called me to tell me how much she LOVES it. She said it's the nicest card she's ever seen. Such a nice compliment because I wasn't even sure if my painting was any good.
Hope you enjoy it too :)
My mom's in a knitting group so I wanted to make a mother's day card with a sheep on it. Not my best drawing but I think it's cute and I'm happy with it. She woolly loves it.
I used soft gloss gel to seal the duralar (similar function to acetate), which is messy but REALLY strong in this application.
I hope you like it!
