Random Cards

Many events came up the last week that I was busy making cards from birthday to sympathy.

Happy Birthday






I used the Penny Black stamp"...your birthday" (love the critter) and the sentiments collection for the happy birthday phrasing and the dotted circles (colored by Colorbox colors orange and red).

For the colors of the critter, I used Copic Markers E33 (Sand), E35 (chamois), RV13 (tender pink) and the colorless blender. The present and the icing of the cake was in R37 (carmine), which is starting to become my favorite red color. RV13 was used again for the first layer of icing on the cake. I used Y17 (golden yellow) for the cake color and lighting of the candle with a little bit of the orange "at you spica" pen. :)

Sympathy




The flower on the front of the card is from the Kodomo Inc Spring Flower collection. The flower is called "Sweet Flag." What a great name for the flower. I colored the flower and the stem using the Marvy Uchida markers pale violet and olive green. I haven't used the Uchida markers in a long time. I should pull them out once in a while. They are great for coloring and adding detail.
