I mentioned last week in this post that I'd been asked to make a llama card for a friend to give to her daughter for there birthday. I actually made two cards, and today I have the second one for you.
Isn't it different? It's very cool how two vastly different cards can be made using the same stamp set. I used Shimmer paper for the front of the card, as I love the way the ink blends on it. I cut the 'celebrate' from Shimmer paper too so that it sort of disappeared into the front of the card, leaving the llama as the focus.
The background behind the llama was inspired by this card with a much cuter llama than mine, but beggars can't be choosers! My brief was a blue llama card, so I kept the sky to just Balmy Blue. Once again the llama was coloured with my watercolour pencils and blended with Clear Wink Of Stella.
I used a small strip of DSP on the inside to bring blue into the colour scheme again.
So what do you think? Which card would you have chosen? My friend loved both so much that she couldn't decide and took both of them! Now she's set for her daughter's next birthday too.
Bye for now,
Tina
