In one of Sandy Allnock's StageIt shows and in my Copics classes last weekend I learned about using Copics' Colorless Blender liquid to add texture. To get the denim effect in these cards, you dip a scrap of denim in the Colorless Blender and press it onto the colored image (colored with Copics). You can see the "denim" effect better on the lighter colored overalls but I think both of these cards turned out so cute! The DPs on the card to the left are from American Crafts "Dots & Stripes" 6x6 pad; on the card to the right, the DPs are Seven Gypsies "Venice" 6x6. Thanks for stopping by!

They're both darling! (But you know my eye went right to those polka dots, lol.) I've seen that denim trick before and am going to have to try it. Great cards, as always!
That faux denim technique is perfect or this little guy Sherry. These both came out nicely. I especially like the layout of the second one. The circle element really frames him beautifully.
What a great tip! Thanks for sharing Sherry. Love your little cuties!

oh- they are adorable! Love both of them- the denim is perfect-and your coloring of their hair- stupendous!!!! There is something about the circle on the 2nd one that catches my eye!
I love these! So cute! This would be a great technique to share at the Cozy Crop House next May :)
