Here’s another DoodleFactory Creatures II card. This time, I paired Unger with this week’s Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge to come up with this card. Something about him reminds me of a baby, so I kind of ran with that as the theme for my card.
I colored Unger in shades of blue, then used coordinating shades for the rest of my card. For the sentiment stamped underneath the image, I used sections of two different sentiments from the Sentiments Baby set and just inked up the words I wanted to stamp. My Stamp-a-ma-jig helped me to place them just right.
Layouts like this one with lots of small panels are hard for me to figure out, so I ended up cutting a piece of scrap paper first to figure out the dimensions I wanted for each of the smaller panels based on the size of my image panel. I used a coordinating dotted piece of paper for the small panels, layered on a pale blue panel for contrast. I layered the stamped image on a piece of bolder blue. Before attaching the image to the cardfront, I ran a strip of blue satin ribbon down the right side of the card. The image is layered over the ribbon. A matching bow sits just over the image to complete the card.
