Hello Ai Fans!
My card today uses the
Under My Umbrella set for this sweet girlfriends card. Friends are so special and I think a card like this would be perfect to send to remind them you are there for them.
I started out by coloring the stamped image in with my Copic markers (listed below). As I am in the building of my Copic collection and didn't have the colors I needed for shading, I used a couple Prismacolor pencils to add the shading on the pink and purple jackets. I used one of the
Ai Rectangle A2 Double Stitched dies to cut it out.
I then stamped it again on some masking paper and fussy cut the mask out. After placing the mask on the colored image, I used a stencil to add the raindrops. After I taped off the edges (to keep a thin white border) I placed the stencil on top and taped it down at the top to create a sort of hinge. This is so I can lift it up to see if I'm happy with my stenciling or need to add more in areas. I used this Ranger ink blending brush (linked below) to first add a light blue background using Tumbled Glass Oxide without the stencil. I then put the stencil on and stenciled the same ink and some Blueprint Sketch Oxide for the raindrops. I really like using these brushes, as for me, I'm able to achieve a much lighter effect than when I use the foam pads.
To finish it up, I added some clear sparkle to the umbrella and a few other spots. I also used a silver gel pen to color the belt buckle and the buttons on the purple jacket.
I hope you've enjoyed seeing my card and a bit of the process today! Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful, crafty week!
