And may I wish you all a
Well I'm certainly glad to get back to normal, and get stuck in to a new card challenge over at the new blog The Sugar Bowl. This blog is for all the Sugar Nellie fans out there, and I know that's a lot of you.
So the first challenge is based on this sketch by Tiets. And as I love sketches, and love Sugar Nellie designs even more I just had to join in.
So here is my take on the sketch.
I used the cute 'Pickin' Apples' image as I love it so much, and coloured with those Copic's again, highlighting with a white Sakura gel pen.
One of the layers was embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder, and the 'CUTE' text was embossed and cut out from one of the words embossing folders that Cuttlebug do. I just traced around the embossed word with the white gel pen to make it stand out.
I added some gems and glitter for a little bling, 'cause I love it so much.
And a Prima hydrangea flower layered up with a pearl bead in the centre completes the look. This is not a card, but actually a design to go into a picture frame for a little girl I know. I hope she likes it.
ooOoo
I just thought I'd show you the benefit of editing in Photoshop. Some people might not know just how much difference it can make to the quality of your photo's, so I'm showing you a direct comparison below.
Happy crafting

Hi Debbie,
I use the blender for correcting any mistakes..usually if i go out the lines and i also use it on the ground bits by my images feet...(lol where else would the ground be! i write the stupidest things sometimes..)
start with the lightest copic colour then the mid tones and finish with the darker then just go over it all with the blender ...it just blends the colours, takes the stark edges and lightens the colours. i don't really use it that much on my actual image...unless it's bubbles..lol..
hope this helps hun. hugs rachxxx
