Our hostess this month over at Mo's Digital Challenge blog has set this weeks challenge as Shades of Gray. I chose to use this marvelous digi image called Jack and Ginger.
I sized my image using Adobe Photoshop Elements to fit into my Spellbinders Label Three die, then printed it onto Cryogen white paper with my inkjet printer. I used an assortment of gray Copic markers on this image: C0, C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, W1 and then just a hint of color on the skin with E000. I airbrushed around the image with C2 before removing it from the die.
The patterned background was created with my Impression Obsession Cover a Card Greenery background stamp. I stamped it with VersaFine Smokey Gray ink. The embossed border is a Cuttlebug folder. I airbrushed the flowers to match as well and added some silver findings and a charm for a little bling. All of the grays I used match very well but I found out it is extremely hard to photograph gray. Finished size is 6" square.
