Pin It
Hello everyone! It's Kim from
Katydid Cards. Today, for my Connie Can Crop design team post, I'm using a digital image by our sponsor this month,
Sasayaki Glitter.
This particular image is named
Shy in the Sky, and he sure is a cutie. I opted to use a Z-fold card to showcase him.
To
begin, I brought the image into my Silhouette design screen; sized and
reversed it. I traced it, turning it into a print and cut. The
propeller was cut a second time, so I could pop it for added dimension.
I colored him with Copic markers and added a bit of bling by Eyelet
Outlet; an
Enamel Dot on the propeller and
Round Jewels on the wing, darkening them both a bit to match the card stock. Here's a closer look at him:
The
card base and band was cut from Night of Navy card stock, starting with
the Pop Up Box Card cut file by Lori Whitlock. I used the Carried Away
Designer Series Paper as the perfect backdrop for this high-flyin'
pilot. For the band, I took the traced outline from the image and
welded it for additional support for the image. The inserts were
included with the cut file.
I created a little banner to attached
to the back of the plane and the remainder of the sentiment appears
when you open the card.
And here's a final look down from the top so you can see how the inserts are placed in the center square.
Before
I leave you, I want to remind you about Connie Can Crop's monthly
challenge. This month, the theme is, "It's a Guy Thing". You can make
any sort of a project you want so long as it follows the theme. One
winner, picked at random, will receive a prize from our sponsor.
The
team will also pick their three favorites...those selected will receive a
badge for their blog or social medial...plus bragging rights! If you'd
