Birthday wishes from Shelbert

 Happy Friday HH Fans!

I'm poppin' in today to share our adorable little turtle, his name is Shelbert.

For this clean & simple card I stamped my image using Tuxedo Black Memento ink on Copic friendly cardstock.  I coloured him up with some darker tones to match my patterned paper.

I cut some banners from patterned paper off the same pad.  I had some yellow die cut stars just sitting on my desk from an earlier project & they matched perfectly....I needed a little something because I was not using any enamel dots or ribbon for this design.  I'm so happy with how this cutie turned out, I hope you like it too.

Happy Tuesday!

Today I am sharing the adorable "Shelbert" from High Hopes Stamps! He's so happy it's someone's birthday and he's ready to celebrate!

I was going for a clean and simple card. I started by using an embossing folder and embossed the white background with a diamond pattern. I added a bit of colour with the polka dot paper and inked the edges of everything with some Blueprint Sketch Distress Ink. A few enamel dots and twine from the balloon to Shelbert's hand and I was finished. I always struggle with CAS cards as I love to use lots of bright fun bright papers with lots of layers. 

I die cut the "Turtally Awesome" sentiment also from High Hopes with a balloon die and added twine as the string.

Copics Used:

Turtle: YG01, YG03, YG05, YG07/ E13, E15, E18/ W1, W3

Balloon: B24, B26, B28, B29

This is Shelbert (P116).  Such a cute image and not too tricky to colour either!     

 

I started by colouring the image with Tombow Markers and water. After the image was all coloured and dry, I applied some Glossy Accents to the balloon.  This gave it a lot of shine, but maybe a little difficult to see in this picture.

 

The pattern paper is from Bo Bunny - Safari Collection 6x6 Paper Pad, along with some SU Chocolate Chip and White cardstock.  The image was cut down to a smaller size then layered with the Chocolate Chip cardstock.   The corners of the image were cut using a SU corner punch.  Two strips of SU Alpine ribbon were added horizontally.  Foam tape was applied to raise the main image, to add a bit of dimension.  To complete this card, some YNS - Chocolate Gumdrops were added on the top and bottom corners.

Supplies Used:

Ink - Tombow Markers - 249, N15, 192, 977, 969, 837 and 856.  Versamark Ink Pad and Black Embossing Powder.
 

Paper - Bo Bunny - Safari Collection 6x6 Paper Pad; SU Chocolate Chip and White Cardstock.
 

Misc - Glossy Accents, SU Alpine Ribbon, SU Corner Punch, YNS-Chocolate Gumdrops, Water Brush, Foam Tape, and Glue Dots.
