Oh, boy, does this image ever take me back to my earlier days of stamping. I colored this image in 2008 with prisma pencils. The teeth were colored with a silver pen although they look white in this picture. The background was made a few years ago when I was attempting a bouncing brayer technique. It needed more color so I used the direct to paper technique to add turquoise using an ink pad. I used the Hammered Embossing technique using a dotted embossing folder on the background, but it doesn't show real well. If you look close you will see the dots from the dotted embossing folder. My black card base and green card stock were in my scrap bag.
The inside sentment "Have a Freaky Tiki Birthday".
Wow....now this shows why you shouldn't throw anything way. Such a fun and unique card x
ReplyDeleteAwesome card Shirley! Gorgeous coloring and I love the background! I'm not sure if I could something I did 10 years ago! Ha Ha!

ReplyDeleteWell, all your leftovers sure made a fantastic and fun card design. I love all the great colors too!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, love your humour as always and your colouring is awesome, even if it is a few years old, great background. I don't know if I could find something that good after so many years LOL.

Your “leftovers” card turned out SUPER! The image also Reminds me of some of the crazy card sessions we have when I visit - using anything and everything in sight - gotta love the bouncing Brayer technique to back up this fun image!! Your “funny bone” is showing in this really awesome card!
