This weeks AI challenge is Gift Card Holders. I chose this adorable Snowman Keeper to feature. The Card Keepers come with directions and ideas on how to put the images together. I made it A2 size so that it fits nicely in an envelop to mail.
First, I inked up the image with a VersaFine ink pad, stamped onto 140lb cold press watercolor paper, sprinkled black embossing powder and heat set. I used my Tombow Dual Brush Pens to color. Scroll down to see projects I've done with details on in-direct and direct coloring with Tombows. Such an easy and fun way to add color!! The design paper is from Scrapworks Designs.
Here's a photo of what it looks like before the gift card is slid in. I used a craft knife to cut slits on either side of the bow and the corner of the Christmas tree so the gift card can slide right in.
Tombow colors used:
N55, N95
062, 993
158, 177, 192
847, 873, 856
947, 977
Please pop over to the challenge for this week to see a bunch of gift card holder ideas!
Thanks for visiting!
Take care and STAY POSITIVE!
