Today we are sending our cards to Brianna and Brandon, two young people in a tight spot. I hope our cards cheer them up.
For Brianna - dry embossed the background, stamped & colored the unicorn with Blends, stamped the sentiment & punched it out. I backed the music with a scrap of black.
For Brandon - I had nothing stamp wise. I found a clip art video playing boy. I could not figure out how to print it smaller, so I ended up tracing the image. Then I colored with Crayola pencils & trimmed it to 3-3/4x 5" & backed with Real Red, mounted onto Brilliant Blue. I hope they like them. I didn't do any special duo techniques.
Thanks for stopping by.

Well you nailed this for both kids and I am sure they will love them. Love that you used the musical EF for Brianna's card and that's a very sweet unicorn. Kudos on your ingenuity for getting the image for Brandon's card the size you wanted. Fun piece of clipart. Great cards.

Each of these cards are so special for the children they are for, Karen! I love the way you've captured Brianna's love of purple and music as a backdrop for her favorite unicorn. And you went above and beyond to make a special card depicting Brandon's interest in gaming. I think they will love these fun cards!

both are great. I love the musical background on Brianna's card, and the unicorn is adorable. Brandon's card came out awesome - I thought you were an artist and drew the image, but tracing is just as creative. Great color job... I'm sure both of them will love both cards.
