NO GREY DAYS


Hi Junkies,

Here in Maine, we're in the midst of the grey days of November.  If I have to pick the two months of the year that I dislike most they would be November and March - because of the amount of grey, colorless days.  

My card today has a great pick-me-up message for people like me....




To make this card, using my MISTI, I stamped the image "Grey Days"  from the Technique Junkies November release,  in Momento black ink, and used Copic Markers to "paint" the background in a gradient fashion of blending greys and blues.  It took a little while to get the blending the way I wanted it.  I made a mask from the cloud image and masked it before blending the markers.  I then removed the mask and having left the stamp in the MISTI, I placed it in the same position and inked it again with VersaFine black in for a crisper image.  To finish the design, I used a glitter pen to draw some sparkle and "silver lining" around the cloud.  

Have a great week...and I wish you no grey days only fun crafty ones!  Thanks for stopping by!

So pretty. I do agree with your assessment of November and March. Sort of makes you feel like a bear- wanting to hibernate!
