Thinking of you

Well, I had some time to do a little coloring and make a quick card today. Nothing fancy, but I wanted to send a little something to someone and needed just a little note card to include. Thank goodness I was just practice coloring with some markers that I have that are no longer out on the market. It gave me a chance to practice simple principles like shading and grounding my image by giving it a foundation instead of having it floating in the air so to speak. The image I used is a image from Stampin Up. Cute little bear.  After I was done I decided to use some more Stampin up products and used some Hello Honey card stock and a piece of DSP from a paper pack that I don't have the name of off hand. Now, I thought that while the Hello Honey cardstock is pretty it was just a little plain. Therefore what did I do???????That's right I got my ebrush. LOL. I used one of my medium tone green Spectrum Noir markers and I airbrushed a gentle mist over the Hello Honey cardstock. Well that sure made a difference for me. It definitely made it not so plain and also helped to tie together all the elements of the card. Here is the finished result and now it is all packaged up . Also lucky for me I could make my own envelope for this using my 123 punch board from We r Memory Keepers. I think I have had or have almost everything they have made that you can call a tool and I love them all. :)  Anyway, here is my completed note card. Thanks for looking.
