Day 7 - "F"

I'm using the fruit image from the Sweet Christmas set for today's letter prompt. I coloured the pears using alcohol markers and a comic-book-style colouring technique where the different shades are not blended together leaving an obvious gradation.

  1. Love the shape card today Becky. Have to say I've never heard of a 'comic book style' coloring but do see what you have done. Quite interesting. I'll have to try that out sometime. Thanks for the inspiration!

  3. In the first instance I thought your pears were a joke with a bow. But then I remembered my mom always made stewed pears for Christmas. I will ask her the recipe tomorrow.
    Your coloring is wonderful as is the shape of the card. Love the golden border.

  4. This is such a cut card Beccy. I love to eat pears. I want them right off the tree though not in a can or anything like that.

  6. What a fun shaped card! I have always found shaped cards to be challenge. This might be my style of coloring as I have always had problems getting smooth transitions between colors. Lovely card!

  7. FABULOUS card Beccy!

    Your Fruit has combined perfectly with the golden Foil cardstock and Fancy shape!

    PS - your colouring style looks great too, you may call it comic-book-style but it sure looks Fancy to me ... another technique added to my Technique-To-Try list :)

  8. Amazing how different the image looks with a different style of colouring.
    I have to agree with Sarah's comment - I like them fresh off the tree - not a fan of canned pears.
