Shine Brightly for Mid-Autumn Festival

Shine Brightly for Mid-Autumn Festival

I am continuing my Mid-Autumn Festival cards and here are the addition to my pile. :P

Tuesday Morning Sketches #367

For this card, I am adopting Tuesday Morning Sketches #367 as shown above. I am making two (2) cards out of one sketch again as I find it more fulfilling since I have pulled out my supplies and not to mention that I have extra stocks while saving some times. I decided to rotate the sketch to clockwise so that I can hang my lanterns as in the sketch. For the second card, I just alternate the lanterns arrangement and its coloring.

Close-up: Shine Brightly for Mid-Autumn Festival #1

The lanterns are stamped repeatedly and alternately as in sketch on a white card stock. Then, the lanterns are colored using Copic markers.

Close-up: Shine Brightly for Mid-Autumn Festival #2

The background is distressed using blending inks to mimic a night sky. Before the background is distressed with blending inks, matching masking are put on top of each of the lanterns. Then, a circular yellow blotch is applied onto each of the lanterns to mimic the shine rays from the lanterns. The scene is then attached onto a green card base.

Close-up: Sentiment

The sentiment is stamped onto a strip that mimic the night sky and trimmed uneven angle on right end. It is attached onto the card bottom using foam tape.

Close-up: Shimmering lanterns

As final touch, some shimmers are added to each of the lanterns and its outer rims to mimic the shine rays.

Dimension : 3.25" x 6"
