Here I put the dino in the size I wanted it, and I clicked the 'weld' button (even tho it's not touching anything) so that when I hit the preview, I could see the outline darker
I then opened my paint program, and pasted and cropped
So then I had:
Then I just printed it out, and attached the part that I would be cutting off to dark green cardstock (since it was going to be cut out, I used a few staples.)
Once cut out, I had my cardstock cut out to the outline, and the white plain computer paper were both still in tact. I used Versa Mark Ink in Brown to give it more of a texture look to it (the cardstock was already textured, but this added to it, and gave it more of a definition)
And I used a marker - looking at the white copy to see where to put the lines.
I attached the white paper to an orange paper so that I could cut the beak and bottom mouth part. This once cut out was attached to the green bird, and I used a red glaze pen to fill in the tongue.
So it was kinda like taking an image from DS by using the print screen option, and turning it into a paper piecing pattern, and using that, except this is flat and in one piece besides the mouth.
