A quick post today sharing a card I made a few weeks ago...
I've used Hanging with my Gnomies from MFT aswell as the Happy Birthday circle die.
The gnome has been coloured with my Prisma pencils using only greys.
I wanted him to look like he was casting a Happy Birthday rainbow from his outstretched arms.
The die has been coloured with glitter gel pens and the middle has been embossed with a wood grain folder and popped back in.
To finish off I coloured a few pearls with a black sharpie pen.

What a fun card Claire, the grey gnome does look like he's thrown out a birthday rainbow! He's beautifully coloured and I love the colourful round sentiment. (Seize the Birthday has an anything goes birthday option too if he wanted to visit the gallery there!) Cathy x
ReplyDeleteFabulous card, Claire. I love how you’ve coloured the gnome in shades of grey. It really makes the colourful Happy Birthday stand out. xx
ReplyDeleteLove him. Love how you made him black and white so he really pops out
ReplyDeleteFunny card. I really like the idea of designing the font in color and the image in black and white.
ReplyDeleteYour card is stunning as always. Thanks for visiting my bog yesterday, I switched from Blogger to Wordpress (more to Insta, but I keep the blog) and Google is a pain in the butt to route the traffic through. So you are 100% right to blame Google :D Hope everything is well in these uncertain times.
ReplyDeleteHe is coloured sooooo well Claire and I am a sucker for a rainbow, so this one hits the spot!! Hope you are doing okay xx
ReplyDeleteLove the beautiful rainbow colours on the birthday die cut,a brilliant pop of colour against the grey and white
ReplyDeleteBrilliant combination of grey colored gnom and rainbow colored sentiment. Fantastic card! The coloring of the gnom, even only in gray, is just perfect.
