So I am working on inking new embroidery/digital stamp designs, which means I need to "outline" them. Basically create that black outline right over my sketches. I also am working on my own way of coloring in adobe ideas where I can make the black outline match more of the color of the character. This way I can have a nice clean outline for digital stamps/digitized embroidery and then a nice colored image for my portfolio, threadless or cafe press/zazzle. I think by having the outline a "color" and not black gives it a better look for kids t-shirts etc. Here is peek of my work in progress!
The more 5's I get, the closer I get for a chance to get my artwork printed on a baby onesie! Vote Now! :) I am currently looking to sponsor challenge blogs with my 2 Cute Ink Digital Stamps starting June 4th and would like to sponsor blogs each week! Just email 2cuteink@gmail.com and let me know what dates you have available! The more"5's" I get the better chance I have of getting my design printed as a t-shirt! Here is a sneak peek of my second threadless submission created in adobe ideas. I will post a link if it gets accepted for voting! I am having fun thinking of ideas! Here is a sneak peek of my first Threadless submission as 2 Cute Ink! I started thinking this would be a fun way to get my creative juices flowing by thinking of "creative" drawings that I can enter at Threadless! I do like how this one turned out so now all I need to do is upload the image onto the computer and place on a t shirt template! :) Now I need to think of my next idea! I decided to take a look at zazzle.com after I checked out cafe press.com and I am leaning more towards a zazzle shop! Does anyone have a shop at either place? Just wondering if anyone have any thought? Instead of inking this morning I decided to work on my first design for my cafe press shop. I used one of my recent sketches a, little elephant and had some fun playing with color in adobe ideas. At first I had this little guy colored blue but I decided to color him grey instead. I really like him colored grey better! What do you think I should put this on in my cafe press shop? I know I would like to have a shirt made for me lol. I was thinking of adding more water and splashes, maybe even have the water write out something? I started a new project yesterday in adobe ideas, where instead of inking in black first I went straight for color! So far so good, hoping this will be my first image to put on cafe press :) So last night while Brandon, the doggies, and I were having a netflix marathon, I had the urge to play around with my sketchbook pro app. I have only tried it out a few times and I created one of my favorite pieces last year called "Cherry Love"! I have always wanted to take my cute characters and color them more artistically. So I was just testing out different brushes and then found the same brush I used for the cherries and just started doodling! The doodling yesterday made me want to follow through with my idea of creating a cute wedding greeting card line using this style! :) |
