Cosie's Creative Corner

Merry Christmas Last month I used this lovely image from Deedee's images  and I just had to make another card with it. I used distress inks for the background again and cut the image slightly smaller and used different colour copics for the scarf. Added some snowflakes, the large one from Simon Says Stamps, and the small ones from a border die. I didn't keep a record of the copics and the sentiment. It is a mix of free stamps that I received with a Stamp magazine. Sadly Deedee's Images is closing at the end of the month so if you like her images you will have to get in quick. I will be sorry to see her go.

Harvest Time Mr scarecrow is part of the wonderful images sent to us for this months challenge at Deedee's Digis. There were plenty to choose from but Mr scarecrow on his own won out. I copied him hanging on the signpost and the pumpkins to make this scene. They were coloured with copics then fussy cut and mounted onto the watercolour background. I used distress ink pads, blueprint sketch and mowed lawn that I stamped onto a piece of acetate, spritzed with water and then dipped my water paper into it. Love this easy way to do a simple background and it is different every time. Adhered it onto a ivory card base with a foam backing to keep it flat as it curled slightly.
