Mo's Digital Pencil - Future Rock Star

Hi Everyone,

A friend of our family and his wife are expecting there first baby in the next few weeks and I made them a crochet blanket, all I needed was a card to go with it.

I had already purchased this Digital Stamp months ago ready to make this card, reason being is because this image had jumped at me and I new it was perfect for my friend.

My friend is Guitar mad, and so this image was of course perfect, I even stalked his Insta trying to find photos of his guitar as I couldn't remember what it looked like :-) I wanted to get everything correct right down to the last detail.


I printed the image out onto X-Press It Blending Card using my Brother Laser Printer, then proceeded to colour the image up using Copic Markers.

  

I wanted to run the image through my Big Shot using Spellbinders Labels Eighteen, I knew it was not going to completely fit into the largest of the dies, so I placed the die over the top of the image and used a mechanical pencil to trace around the die, this way I could see exactly where the die was going to cut. I then used my EK Success Cutterbee scissors to fussy cut the left hand side of the guitar. I then erased the pencil lines. When I run the die through my Big Shot I slide the die underneath the part that I don't want cut off and run it through.





I used patterned papers from Crate Paper Little Boy Blue 6x6 Paper Pad, I still wanted to give the card a babyish feel to it. I matted the patterned papers using American Crafts Cardstock.


I also cut down the little H is for Horse Block, the baby is a little boy and his name is going to be Hudson so I was thought this would be a cute little addition. I used my Cutterbee Scissors to cut it out and banner the end of it.


The centre piece of card I ran through my Sizzix Big Shot using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle die, I used the outside piece for the inside of my card.

I added Tonic Studio Nuvo Crystal Drops in Neon Blue Crush and Liquid Mercury, the blue is one of the Glow In The Dark line, can't wait to see it glowing in the babies room.

  

I am super excited for my friend to receive my little package of card and crochet baby blanket.
