I designed this card in Silhouette Studio. I created a rectangle sized at 4×5.25 inches and filled it with one of the pretty papers from the Spring Plaids collection by Periwinkle Pixel Shop. I rotated and panned the paper so that my plaid stripes would run up and down and not diagonally. Then I added the digi onto the rectangle and sized it accordingly. Using the digi’s cutline, I created an offset and then filled the offset with a black to white gradient.I shut the cutlines off for both the digi and the offset as this was to be a one layer panel. I then printed the panel out onto Daler-Rowney Drawing paper and colored the bear with my Colleen colored pencils. If you follow my blog, you will know that they are still the original made-in-Japan Colleens that I have had since I was a kid. It is such fun to break them out every now and again.
