Blue movement


As LIM want us to show movement on our cards, I thought this was the perfect challenge to use Mo Manning's cartwheel image on a spinner.   I've coloured him all in blue as that is the challenge for this week's challenge on Mo's challenge site.



I've coloured him with copics, and added some additional shading on top with polychromos pencils.  I added glaze to his wellies to make them look like rubber.   To stick with the blue theme on Mo's challenge I added a blue card frame to conceal the spinner mechanism, and finished with a couple of sentiments from Hero Arts stamped in a bright pearl blue.

As Less is More is all about movement - I've attempted a little video clip to show Georgie doing his cartwheel in all it's glory.  (edit - video seems to have stopped working - sorry - if anyone knows why, give me a heads up and I'll try and fix it)


Off to make dinner - catch you all later.

    Wonderful Tara, I love spinner cards too but my grandchildren have been staying this last week and crafting has been somewhat curtailed.
    Thanks again.
