I've created a cute little door hanger for a work colleague who had a baby girl a few weeks ago using an image of Barry Bear with a balloon. My image is painted with DI re-inkers on water colour paper, and I used some thick glittered backing papers which are stuck onto the MDF door hanger and trimmed to shape.
I've also added a couple of die cuts, my new Lavish Branch and also my Memory box Banner. With difficulty, I added some lettering by printing it onto the green card before using the die. It was a bit fiddly, but I got there in the end.
Here's a close up of my painted image with his glossy nose and balloon. I printed him out in a grey outline colour so that the lines were not as dark. I think it gives a softer effect with the DI painting.
