How time flies when we're having a good time! Beckie's blog continues to be a favorite. She is celebrating her blogaversary today with a HAPPY Blog Hop, and I'm happy to be part of it!
So here's the card that I made for Beckie ... effervescent and joyous, and a little bit whacky:
To make the card, I started with a fun font (called "Bubol") that I found on My Fonts. I set it and drew the broken line, using Adobe Illustrator as my computer program, and printed the black-and-white text/line on Gina K Pure Luxury 130# paper. I chose that paper because I knew I wanted to color the font using Copic markers directly on the paper (without a mat) and knew that this paper did not bleed through with the Copics. Some dots and swirls are off-cuts (what I call "gadribbles") from when I cut bookmarks that you'll see next weekend; other dots are simple dabs with complementing marker colors. I was happy when I made this, happy to use my markers, happy to use gadribbles before they hit the trash can!
Beckie has some blog candy from her grand prize sponsor, 3 Girl Jam. To be eligible, be sure to comment on all of the line-up's blog posts for today ... there aren't too many in this Hop, so that should be easy-peasy. The prize is a $20 gift certificate to 3 Girl Jam, home of some fabulous crinkled ribbon that I love so much!
