| Happy Birthday Elaine |
Elaine liked the Gone Fishing doodle I included in the post on Silhouetting, so I made it into a Birthday card for her. I know, it’s not a romantic image, but the card was made with love.
Creating it was relatively simple, I:
- Wrote Happy Birthday on rice paper using a brush pen.
- Used GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program - a free alternative to Photoshop) to colour and combine the images.
- Uploaded the resulting image onto a Moonpig card.
This isn’t a cost-effective way of creating cards to sell, but it worked well as a one off. One thing I would do differently next time is to save the images in a higher resolution. I would also consider combining the image and text in a desktop publishing package rather than an image manipulation package.
Happy Birthday Elaine
