Mo Manning Card Series: #1

 I was recently commissioned to create a set of cards for a charity event.  My concept was to use Paper Tole or Paper Sculpting on each one working only with Mo Manning's images.  This is the entire set -
My preference is to not ever repeat a design. However, to bring some continuity to the "set", I used 4 basic elements with each card:

  • The base card and envelope are all Kraft CS
  • All the images are Mo's - creating a consistency in style.
  • All six use an identical sized background paper with the bottom one inch hand torn and adhered with a gap.
  • Each will have an elevation to the image by using an average of three sculpted layers for each image.
I will be posting one card a month in order to enter them in Mo's Challenge Blog - so this will be the first in the series. 

"Extra" 

PROCESS INVENTORY


IMAGES: 
  • "Extra" by Mo Manning can be purchased at Mo's Digital Pencil
  • For the focal image I used Paper Tole Technique to 3D the image. Printed 3 copies, colored them with Copics, fussy cut and 'paper sculpted' the image.  The layers were both glued & elevated with foam tape to achieve dimension.
  • Sentiment is a rubber stamp by -?
PAPER:  
  • Neenah "Classic Crest Solar White" 80# Cover Wt. used for the image.
  • Background papers consist of a grey paper embossed with a "brick wall", corrugated paper off a Starbuck's coffee cup, a coppery shiny CS from stash.
  • Ticket Stub punch by Corner Chomper used for the corners.

INKS:
  • Images were printed on an Epson WF-3520 printer 
  • Hand colored with Copics.
    This card should be eligible for the following
