Have a Magical Day!

This is today's post for Oddball Art Co !

For this project I am using the balloons and sentiment from

CCC 90 All the Feels Bear

Quite a simple card today....

Step ONE

I made the background. A turquoise acrylic paint through a stencil (a magazine freebie). Stampin' Up shimmery texture paste through another stencil (Art by Marlene). Periwinkle water colour paint added as shown.

Step TWO

I trimmed the pieces to fit a 5" by 7" white card blank and put

Distress Ink (shaded lilac) around the edges of the background and a first layer of patterned paper.

The sentiment is from CCC90 - I just cut out the word Magical and added have a, day! with a Micron pen. I added the Distress Ink around this too.

Step THREE

I painted the balloons with shimmery white water colour and cut them out. I added twine to these with white glue.

Step FOUR

I added the balloons and sentiment on dimensional tape.

Bummed Out Bear Card Tutorial

Hey friends, Chris here!

I'm returning this week with a quick tutorial for you using this weeks Creepy Cute Chronicles newsletter premium image (Bummed Out Bear) and Dehlia Fairy image #70 from the Oddball Stamps store.

First I applied a base of copic marker to the images. 

For the bear I used light cream and the fairy white skin by Master Arts

Next I used colored Derwent pencils (skin tone) to deepen the color and add depth to the fairy and added Prisma premium color pencils to the bear

FOR THE CARD BASE 

I used a 8.5 x 11 and trimmed it to 6 x 11 

then scored it in 4 places at 

1.5",  3",  5.5"  &  8"

I used the Oddball Digi Paper “Dots & Doodles” for the panels cut to the following sizes

small 1.25" x 6" medium 2 .25" x 6" and the large 2.75" x 6"

I chose Dots & Doodles  paper in letter size to make my colored images pop!  

Dots & Doodles digi paper is also available in size 12" x 12"

Each of the smaller panels got a balloon, which are just two of the 17 images included in the premium collection.

 The final panel displays Dehlia Fairy image #70 and Bummed Out Bear.  

This is what it looks like all closed up.
