Bringing In The New
Year
themed images for this round. Team A have the pleasure in bringing you some gorgeous samples
for the images for this round.
My card is using a cute
image called Beary Sweet Winter from Digi’s by Phooka.
I have combined 3
digital images together to make this card. I used a previous freebie Fireworks
design by Anne Fenton for the
background, placed the cute bear in front and used a sentiment stamp from Shannon’s Sentiments adding
the 2012 with a font in the graphics programme. I love the flexibility you have
with digis and that you can combine images to make something unique for your
own cards.
The image is coloured
with Promarkers and I have used a clear Sakura glitter pen on the stars, adding
lots of star shaped and small gems from Papermania in clear and blue.
I have used a sheet of pearlescent
card for the base card, adding a piece of metallic card with embossed silver
stars. The image is matted onto some more card and raised on 3d foam. The
holographic stars have been in my stash for years and I threaded some metal
brads from Papermania through, adding them to the top of the card to look like
they are part of the fireworks.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy New
Year, I hope that 2012 has started off well for you and will bring you much
happiness and good health.
