I’m here.
In
one of my card swap groups we have been working our way through the alphabet
each month with making a swap card using something that started with the letter
of the month. For January, our Alpha
Letter was “Y” and here’s my completed card.
I
selected Y is for “Yo-Yo” and if you’ll notice carefully, it’s a DUNCAN yo-yo –
my maiden name! (Is there any other
brand?) I used a couple of digital images to make this one as I wanted it to be
the side view with the string up for the sentiment to go beside, then I wanted
room for the butterfly and the DUNCAN logo to fit on the side. Once I merged all three images together, then
I layered the text close to the string and printed it on Neenah 110# cardstock.
I
used my Copic markers for coloring and used Gina Marie Designs Label Six die
set for the decorative edge. I covered
the A2 sized card base with the red dotted Swiss paper then secured the
completed image to the center of the card.
Lastly I added the tiny bling dots randomly around the image to complete
the design.
