Toy, thanks for this way cool project today. I LOVE these. I even told DD about maybe making these as favors for her up and coming wedding......details...
I read the instructions, but it just wasn't coming to me. Once I looked at the video, they were rather easy. The dog image is part of a Mo's digital image. I colored him with prisma pencils and gamsol, versa marked and clear ep then cut out.
The hill and daisies are from a picture I took of a customers potted plant then e-mailed to myself. Got home edited the picture, printed it out and made into a hill. Cut the extra daisies out, popping up a few. Drew the stems and leaves, added the dog.
Sponged on the clouds using RR cloud stencil. Layered my scene with black cs, put on a white matchbook. Added the doodle lines to tone down the white.
Used yellow brads to match the daisy centers and drew flower petals around them. ( haven't done the inside yet, ran out of time.)
Well, hope you like what I did. Sure was fun!.....TFL :0)
