Duckie In Egg
Pattie's Creations Design Challenge is starting a new challenge this week and with Easter being this weekend - what else could the theme be? Did you know that Pattie's Creations offers a freebie every month? For my card I used the freebie that was offered the first Friday of this month - Duckie In Egg. I decided that I wanted to make a statement with this card: that you don't have to spend a lot of money to make cards. The image is a freebie. The papers were scraps from other projects as is the ribbon. And I colored the image with Bic Sharpies. So many people use Copics and get wonderful results. But some people just can't afford the investment of those markers. I once bought a set of Sharpies at Staples with a coupon - I think I got a set of 40 markers for around $12. Certainly you cannot get the same results as you can with Copics or Spectrum Noir markers....but you can still create a nicely colored image.

He is adorable! Love the image and the fun papers you used for the background. Very spring and happy. I need to pick up some sharpies, they worked great. I have some copics but they are pricey. I do use my distress markers more lately as I have more of those. Have a Happy Easter!
He's so cute and great patterned papers too.
Zella - I used the same freebie image for my creation too! He was just too cute that I had to go with that one. I have so many scraps from other cards, and I never think of using them. Now you have me thinking a little harder that I could really save some money in the process!
