Racy

The image I used for this week's challenge at Inspiration Destination is quite out of the ordinary for me.  One of our new sponsor's is Kenny K.  I decided to go for one of his more risque images, Carmen Electrafying, just to do something totally different.  I think I completely shocked my husband when he saw it.  I asked him what he thought and he didn't really answer.  I assumed he didn't like it.  Actually, he asked me if I could make him a life-size one.  I don't think so!  It was fun to make this card, though.  This is the first time I tried blue highlights for the hair.  I ended up covering a bit too much of it up when I went back to touch up the black.  Oh well, next time. 

The digital papers are from Po and Po Digital on Etsy.  I colored the image with Copics.  The race flags were cut with the Silhouette.  I am using the Silhouette more and more to decorate cards.

Carousel Zebra

This week at Inspiration Destination we have three sponsors.  I decided on Carousel Zebra Set by Doodle Pantry.  They had quite a good selection of carousel images.  The set comes with matching papers in quite a few solids and prints along with many variations of the zebra and sentiments, too.  I used one of the pre-colored images in the set, but I went over the stripes with a Copic marker.  My printer doesn't print a deep enough black.  The  images always appear a bit faded so I like to darken them.  I added a banner cut with the Silhouette.
