Our sponsor this month is Art by Miran, another wonderful digi artist! And our randomly-selected participant will win a prize of 3 digis. Kewl, huh? Be sure to check out these fab images if you are unfamiliar with them. And also be sure to play along this month by coloring an image for your project with any coloring medium you wish.
FYI, I am using my Art by Miran image later this month. Today I have chosen an SCACD image, Special Delivery, drawn by the talented Carmen Medlin. I printed my image on X-Press It BC, and colored it with Copics: B21, B24, B28, C0, C1, C3, C4, C6, C8, Y13, Y15, Y18. (My colors were chosen based upon the colors of a Hyacinth Macaw, one of my very favorite parrot species.)
I also used die cuts from the Memory Box Typewriter Upper and Lower dies, as well as those from the Cheery Lynn Gears dies. My CS is from Stampin' Up. I added some baker's twine to the rolled up paper. And that's about all she wrote for this card.
I hope you check out the fabulous inspiration by my talented teammates: Carla, Kathi, and Laine. Such a fun variety of creations! Do join us this week, won't you? Unless you are too exhausted from all your New Year celebrating...
Tomorrow is the playoff game for our Cardinals. They put up a better showing against the 49ers than they did against the Seahawks. But, with our quarterback situation still sucking big time, I expect one and done. I love my Cardinals anyway, and am looking forward to this next season.
I do hope you all have some fun plans for the weekend! I will be back again on Monday.
And Happy New Year!
A gorgeous card. Loving the image and the blue and yellow is so striking. So looking forward to seeing your ABM creation too.
