Jarrod...

Flat for Folding
613 Ave C 's  current  challenge is ATG w/ optional twist of "A Bird in the Hand" [use a bird in your design].  The link above will take you to the post for additional info re the challenge and the, as always, creative work by the DT!  I was assigned to showcase an image from one of my all time favorite digital artists, Rick St dennis.


Expanded to Display
A shoutout to my friend BETTY for this really fun card fold!  I felt it could accommodate a very masculine, steampunk image with it's very straight lines.  Thanks Betty, for the inspiration and 'technical support'!  

PROCESS INVENTORY
IMAGES: Original zibbet banner
  • The image 'Jarrod' was provided for this project by Rick St dennis from his Etsy Shop .
  • For the focal image I used Paper Tole Technique to give him dimension. Printed 2 copies, colored them with Copics, fussy cut and 'paper sculpted' the images.  The layers were both glued in some places & elevated in others with foam tape to achieve the desired dimension.
PAPER:  

  • Neenah "Classic Crest Solar White" 80# Cover Wt. used for the image.
  • DP used for the mats were from Tim Holtz Ideology Collage papers and from 7 Gypsies - Off the Wall Collection.
  • Base CS is from stash.
EMBELLISHMENTS: 
Back
  • Die Cut used for the gears is by La La Land Craft Dies and was cut from the Tim Holtz papers.
  • Spellbinders dies were used for the frame and mat behind the focal image and for the message panel on the back.
INKS:
  • Images were printed on an Epson WF-3520 printer 
  • Hand colored with Copics:
