Hi everyone, hope you've all had a good week and some good weather! It's a new challenge on DU2DS today with a theme of the great outdoors so there are lots of ways of interpreting this one. I hope you can join us and there's some wonderful inspiration from my design team friends and our guest designer Julie.
I've used my Kingfisher digi available here, coloured it with copic markers and then used the 'out of the box' technique to cut it out with a rectangle nestability die. The background paper is by 'Scribble Scrabble' from quite some time ago and I've used dimension tape to raise up the layers, some scrunched ribbon and a pearl to decorate.
I'm also entering my card into the Copic Creations Challenge where the theme this time is birds.There's a great prize of bird digi images by the lovely Tiff of Tiffany Doodles and some fantastic copic colouring by the design team.
Thanks as always for your lovely comments which are much appreciated.
