Digi Choosday | Polkadoodles Crafts | Bright Father’s Day Card

G’Day Crafty Friends,

It’s Digi Choosday time!

Today I’m sharing a bright and happy Father’s Day card featuring a fun digital image, cheerful pattern paper & copic colouring with a little ink blending too.

For this card, I started by printing my digital image onto Express-It Cardstock and colouring everything with Copics.  I kept the colours fresh and vibrant to create a playful Father’s Day design.

One of my favourite parts of this project was blending the background with ink.  I used soft copic blending techniques to create the grassy ground and drew birds in the sky with a Fine Black Liner.  The gentle transitions between colours help the scene feel light, sunny and full of happiness.

To add extra interest & to tone it down a little, I randomly chopped the paper into 4 pieces – you know me – prior to adhering it onto a layered of White Cardstock.  When chopping your paper, if it has a pattern, don’t forget to keep it in order when cutting.  The pattern of the paper and the bright colours gives the card a fun and energetic feel while still keeping the design balanced.

I finished the card with a sentiment digi that ties the whole project together perfectly.  A bold sentiment always adds the perfect finishing touch to a handmade card!
