Charlotte's Card for Grandpa

It's Grandpa's birthday next week. I saw this clipart and thought it looked like C. I removed all the colors from the .wmf file and then set to work.
  • After choosing this week's Card Patterns sketch as a starting point, I picked out some crazy Lime Rickey paper (whoa!).
  • I Swiss Dotted the BG, added ribbon and primas and glitterfied the butterfly with stickles.
  • I colored with Copics but did not do too much shading since the ink from the printer tends to smudge super-easy!



Gotta fly. I got two kids itching to get on my computer and a guest room to ready for my brother and his boyfriend! Peace out!

Adorable! That clipart does look just like Charlotte. You are the Queen of perfect clipart. (I secretly am a clipart snob-until I see the treasures you find!) :O)
