December Birthdays

Aren't December birthdays so hard? It's so tempting to theme the card with the Holiday season, but it's a birthday... wha'doo'eye'dooo?? So I compromised with this birthday card for a friend who's birthday is Dec 21st.

Here's a neat technique using the Copic Colorless Blender "refill solution" where I coloured the jeans and then dabbed colourless blender onto a texture stamp and then stamped the blender on the pants to get the texture - awesome!


I didn't keep track of the Copic marker numbers but gathered them off the table for this pic. I can determine which colours I can see when I look at this so ask if you are interested. I am having major wireless keyboard problems and therefore typng and p eting is quite a chore :( Sorry.
Once I was done, I used Flower Soft to make the snow look more realistic, another fun product.


Ta daa :)
