Aloha ♥ !!!
I love that joke, even if it's still corny. Paper Smooches April Challenge is to create something that is Black and White with a POP of color. Zebras! With a red heart!
This card is fairly simple, aside from continuing to try and produce a "mirror image" using a piece of acetate. After stamping with black ink onto acetate, I have to be very careful not to shake too much in order to lay the acetate onto the card next to the image, then gently press it into the card. The trick to evening out both images to look similar is to use a black marker all over both. It also smooths out any jagged edges because I am a shaker :)
Then use a marker to sketch out some grass/ground. To finish I used 3D Crystal Lacquer to round up and sparkle the stripey heart & eye balls ♥

ReplyDeleteYour opening comment just made me smile...I tell that joke to my little grandsons all the time. Only the punch line is "an embarrassed zebra". Also - what's black and white and "read" all over....a newspaper. Bahaha!!! Anyway.....I love this little card. Those zebras are adorbs, and I love how you have put a little blush on one of the little cuties so it becomes a girl. Your card just makes me smile!!!
ReplyDeleteSo cute and adorable. I love this and how you put some makeup on one of the zebras. You do such amazing work.
ReplyDeleteOh, Rosie....this is just too cute!!! Love how you added the blush to make one a cute little girl. I have a granddaughter that would love this card.
