So my cherub need two birthday cards recently at short notice for two brothers aged 9 & 13 who are both Skylander fans…….right…….what’s a Skylander? All I can say is YAY for Google. I found some outline colouring page images, resized them and printed them onto Whisper White card stock with my printer. Then I coloured them in (referencing another Google image on the character for the colours of it) using the Blendabilities which you can get for FREE during Sale-a-bration!
The first character chosen was Spyro.
The second was Terrafin.
Inside the gift of choice was actually cash, although I just put a gift card in for photography reasons. I made the whole inside front panel a half sized pocket and stamped it with the new B.Y.O.P. (by your own present) stamp set.
The results passed the triple boy test and all were happy……….I have a request for three other characters at the moment, so will no doubt be making more Skylander cards over the next month! If you haven’t used the Blendabilties for shading you can check out a short video of how to use them here:
If you’d like to request a Skylander card for your special cherub – leave me a comment and I will see what I can do.
