DIGISTAMPS 4 JOY :: NEW RELEASES :: RONNIE READER


Three more of my drawings are now available as digistamps at the Digistamps 4 Joy store, and the first I have to show you is one called 'Ronnie Reader'.  Here is my card using the new image:



I teamed up the image with another older image from Digistamps 4 Joy, called 'Book Worm'
I printed the image onto white CS and then had a little fun with the colouring, which I did with alcohol markers and a white gel pen:


The checked effect is achieved by using a blender pen.

I used the following to create my card:

cream CS card base
checked DP
green CS
a page torn out of an old dictionary
a black leather label holder that surrounds the word 'discipline'
two flags using the DP and green CS offcuts (with brads holding them in place)
a stick-on sentiment "DON'T DISTURB"

I'll be back later to share the other two new images with you.
