One in a Chameleon

Since slimline cards seem to be all the rage at the moment I thought I would have a go at one.


I die-cut circles into a piece of white card 10cm x 20.5cm and put 3D foam on the reverse to add dimension. Then I glued larger circles of paper onto a DL card base to go behind the apertures.


The chameleons are from a stamp set by Clearly Besotted. I used a grey inkpad to stamp them out and a mirror stamp to reverse some of the images.



I coloured them in with Copics and Promarkers to match the papers

Green: YG01, YG05, YG07, G07
Red: R32, R35, R29, R89
Yellow: Buttercup, Tulip Yellow, Summer Sun
Orange: YR23, YR04, YR07, E08
Pink: RV11, RV32, RV34




The sentiment was done on my computer and I doodled around the edges after cutting it up.

I saw your card in the top pics at the Marker challenge and love it! I have used this sentiment with a different chameleon before but I love how you have matched your papers to your lizard and you have inspired me to try something similar next time I use my chameleon. Thank you! Hugs, Lesley

Perfect, just flipping perfect Katrina! Such a lovely card and great use of snippets. Oddly enough, I just had a pack of DL cards delivered just yesterday as I do love the current trend for slimline cards.
