Really quick post tonight to share a bright little card I've made to enter a few challenges: So, without further ado, here it is...
and a closer view...
I started by die cutting the card base using the dotted die. Then came the tricky part. I cut a piece of thin cardstock to fit behind the front panel of the card and marked where the dots were in pencil. I used ProMarkers and FlexMarkers to colour the rainbow stripes in blocks of two rows of dots. I didn't want to see any colour overlaps through the holes so this took a fair bit of planning before I began colouring. The rest was easy, the panel was adhered to the rear of the card front and I finished off with a simple sentiment. Anyone that uses ProMarkers will know that the colour comes through the back of the card, hence the reason I used thin card as I then had to cover the inside with another panel of cardstock.
Materials used:
- Die: MFT Die-namics - Peek-a-Boo Dots
- Stamp: Clearly Besotted - A Little Sentimental
- Ink: Versafine - Onyx Black
- ProMarkers and FlexMarkers
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
CASology - Week 106 - Rainbow
Less is More - Week 182 - Anything Goes
A Gem of a Challenge - Challenge #124 - Spots and Stripes (die cut spots and stripes of colour)
