Musical Maisy by Di's Digi Downloads


I have a fun card to share with you today that I made as a sample for our Stamps R Us Going Digital challenge that started Monday.  Our sponsor is Di's Digi Downloads, WOW does she ever have some cute images!  This little girls name is Maisy and I colored her with Copic markers B26, B24, B23, B21, C8, C6, C3, C1, C0, Coo, R27, R24, BG0000, YG11.  

Before I colored her I added in the grass and sky with clouds.  The card layout was Splitcoast Stampers SC#331 but it transformed itself into something a little different.  Here's the sketch that my card doesn't look like.


I think the problem I was having is my image is too big which is pretty normal for me.  

I used a Cuttlebug & Sizzix embossing folders and my cardstock colors are Via Vellum Brick & Black, Papertrey Ink Enchanted Evening, Stampin' Up! More Mustard and my image is printed on Neenah Solar White using an HP LaserJet printer.  

I hope you'll be inspired by Di's cute image and visit our Stamps R Us challenge blog and join us for our Going Digital challenge this next two weeks!

I also have a tendency to make images that are just a bit too large but this card turned out fabulous Jan. It's such a strong focal point and really your exceptional coloring skills deserve to be front and center!
