Monster cards

These little cards and envelopes (just a bit larger than an ATC) were made for the Monster Express swap. I was pretty happy with how the monsters came out, plus little = cute, right?

And a little peek-a-boo for fun:

Thank you! I wish I could say I made the paperโ€ฆ. But nope. It came from a scrapbooking stack.

These are very cute. The peekaboo aspect was really clever!

How did you color the monsters? They are shaded great. Adorable little creatures and I love the envelopes.

Thanks, friends!

@gozer I used felt marker to color them and moved the pen in swirly patterns to avoid that streaky look one can get with markers. It made a sort of mottled effect. Then I used colored pencils for the shading.

lol! Thank you! I thought it was pretty cute!

I love the saturated colors and the shading on these guys. Were they done with alcohol markers?

Thank you!

I just used regular olโ€™ markers, then shaded with colored pencils.

Great job packing them in! Iโ€™ll need to try adding colored pencils into my alcohol marker drawings.
