For those of you that have followed my blog for a little while, you know how much I hate trying to create boy/masculine cards....hate with a passion!! No sparkle, no bling and well, they just aren't as cute in my opinion. However, I am really happy with how this birthday card turned out. How cute is this digi image from BUGABOO?!!! I just loved coloring him in and I think he will work well for a toddler's birthday card, don't you? The sentiment is from LAWN FAWN, a newly discovered company to me. Love all of their stuff...LOVE!
Thanks for stopping by and as always I am looking forward to checking out every one's blogs to see what you all have been up to.
Oh this is soooo adorable!!!! You've colored him beautifully, Deborah!! And yes!! It would great for ANY birthday card!! Love it!!!

Thank you Sharon for letting me know. I hadn't had a chance to pop over and check it out. Eeeeek so excited!!
DeleteThis is so perfect for a little fellows card. So beautifully coloured.
ReplyDeleteI am just strting to print and colour digis. Do you have any tips.
I used my neighbours laser printer but still had a bit of ink bleed when I applied my lightest colours. Just the slightest bit of greying of the shade.
Perhaps I should have ironed it or heat set it with my heat gun...
Great masculine card.
I used to have tons of ink bleed problems with my older ink jet printer. It got a little better after I took my heat gun to the image, but I would still have a bit of smearing. I also used to let my images sit for a day or do before coloring. That seemed to help also. Since we got a laser printer I have had zero problems. Maybe try heat setting. I hope that helps. Digis are so versatile as far as resizing them as needed. Good luck!!
DeleteThis is so adorable!! That is the sweetest image and you colored him beautifully!! The stars are perfect touches!! Love this!! Happy Monday :)

ReplyDeleteYou idea of making a couple tags a week is such a GREAT idea. I think I am gonna try that as well. Can you imagine how good it will feel come Nov/Dec when we are scrambling trying to get everything done?! Love this idea! TFS!
Have a great day!
