Polkadoodles – Bella on a Swing


Time for another Polkadoodles Inky Pinky DT make. Over the last week or so I have been having a good old hunt around Nikky's new online store at www.Polkadoodles.co.uk and I found some really wonderful images. I decided to make a card using the beautiful Bella on a Swing. Here she is:



 

I printed Bella on Copic Xpress-it card and then coloured her in with my Copics. I even decided to colour in the background sky and add a few clouds. Here's a closer look:


 

The colours I used are: sky: BG0000, BG000, B60, clouds: C3, C2, C1, C00, Bella - clothes: BG11, BG72, BG75, BG10, YR0000, YR000, YR01, YR02, C5, C3, C00, skin:E11, E0000, E000, E00, hair: E53, E55, E57, E59, swing: E57, E39, E35, E31, E50

Polkadoodles Farmer Shepherd


I had such fun with Polkadoodles new Work and Play 10 release this week. I need to make a guy card to post to a friend in the country, and what better than this cute farmer with his dog and his sheep.
To make the card, I used some of the fabulous background papers and other embellishments on the Work and Play 10 Country Life collection.

Here is what I put together using the digi collection elements in Microsoft Word:



 

Then I printed it using my inkjet onto some Copic Xpress card and used my Copics to colour the image. This is how he ended up:



 

The Copic colours I used are: clothes & hair: E47, E44, E42, E43, E49, YG99, YG97, YG95, YG93, skin:E11, E0000, E000, E00, R20, sheep: W7, W5, W3, W1, W00, dog: E23, E27, E35, stick: E55, E57
It was such a quick and easy card to make.
