CAS elephant birthday cards...
Hello my fabulous friends!
Sometimes you just need something quick...
When my mom asked me to make a few birthday cards for her to mail out, I knew I didn't have tons of time to spend on them, so I kept them CAS using the adorable animals from Hello Bluebird!
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Solar White; DCWV Glitzy Glitter
Stamps: Hello Bluebird Pig Day, Elephant Friends, Puddle Play
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black; Copic Multiliner; Uniball Signo White
Coloring: Copic
Elephant- W4, W2, W0, R00, E81
Mouse- C3, C1
Bird- YR27, YR23, Y19, Y15
Ground- BG11, YG11
Balloon- V12, V15, V17, V09
Dies: Kat Scrappiness Double Stitched Rectangles
I did very minimal masking to create this scene (just the end of the elephant's trunk so he could hold the balloon string). I kept my coloring super simple too.
I couldn't find any paper in my stash that seemed to feel right for this, so I just drew my own directly onto the stamped panel. I didn't really like the first color I put down, so I ended up blending both the YG11 and the BG11 together to form new color (I love that Copics let you do that!), then embellished with a white gel pen.
I was able to get 3 done quickly so my mom wouldn't miss anyone's birthday! Yay!
Do you make birthday cards on demand, or do you stock pile so you have pre-made cards to pull from?
See you soon!
