The Paper Shelter – EdenLand Designs

Hi there!! This card that I’ve got here features an adorable image from The Paper Shelter, called The Saxophonist. I merged him onto a music print digital paper from Digital Divine Designs, then colored him up with my SN and Copic markers. I went with a monochrome scheme, with only the saxophone “popping” with color. I used another music pattern from the same pack for the card background, then started laying things out, using this sketch from Feeling Sketchy as inspiration:

I used an unbranded die to cut out the musical pattern from a bright CS to coordinate with the sax, then adhered the sentiment that I printed on my computer on top of it. For the 3 elements on the left side of the card, I dove into my brads, and scored the music notes 🙂

Good morning 🙂 Yesterday was so cold and windy here, but I guess I shouldn’t complain, as some communities to the west of us got snow….and lots of it!! I guess winter comes, but the drivers – that’s what I dread the most 🙁 But for now, I’m going to enjoy fall, and the beautiful colors, like I have here on this card. I used Autumn Joy from The Paper Shelter for it. I just love the look on the boy’s face 🙂 I colored the image with my Prismacolor pencils, then cut it out with an unbranded stitched rectangle die. I had just the scrap of paper for the background, as the leaves in the DP and the leaves in the picture coordinated perfectly. I cut a few strips for the top layer, and then die cut the 3 layered banners with a die (from – I can’t remember). To add just a bit more Fall fun to the card, I punched out some colorful leaves with a Fiskars corner punch 🙂
