I am back at making cards for family this week!! The plover image is from CLKER. I laser printed it onto white cardstock and using masks I sponged the horizon line, the mountains in the background and added some brown for the sand in the foreground. I watercoloured their bodies a little after the sponging and added eyes with a white gel pen. I layered the image and the little font greeting with with black. I cut a tan card to fit in my large envelope, added a layer of decorative paper cut from a larger sheet and then added a purple ribbon which I trimmed with a wavy edges cutter. I mounted the plovers with 3D foam tape and the greeting with one side 3D foam tape and the other just double sided where it overlaps the image. To finish it off I added a decorative border using a black permanent marker on the background. Love how it worked out!! Therese
