As you can see, I altered my latest free digi, “Teacup Pup” and put him in a pocket on an easel card. Although I drew this digi for all those dog lovers who also love coffee or tea, I wanted to illustrate that the little pup is more versatile than that. 🙂
I colored up the puppy with the following Copic markers: W1, W3, E23, and E33. Yup, that’s it! Just 4 colors! woot woot!
I then fussy cut him out and popped his front paws over the edge of a pocket I created using the Diemond Dies Pocket die (the 4th largest) and part of a Diemond Dies Top Note die (the 2nd largest).
To embellish the pocket and also create a stopper for the easel card mechanism, I also used the flower button, 2 hole button, and the heart button dies from the Diemond Dies Vintage Buttons set. I tied little bows of pink embroidery thread in each button and then popped those up on foam adhesive dots.
Please note that you can still use the Diemond Dies Coupon Code: thankskristina to get 10% off your entire purchase and free worldwide shipping on orders over $35!
The final touches were just drawing in faux stitch lines around the pocket with a metallic blue Gelly Roll pen and adding Glossy Accents to the pups eyes and nose.
