Hi everyone,

I started coloring this image a month ago. I just wasn't sure how I wanted to make the card design. Sometimes it takes awhile. The card base is neenah cs cut two times at 6.5 inches. On one of the pieces I scored one half inch and folded it back. I then added the second piece and glued it on to make the base of the card. The image is printed onto neenah cs and colored with copic markers. E00,000,21,51,  Y21,26, YR21, YG61,63, BV000,01,02, V12, The butterflies were also colored with the copic markers. I used ek-success of the 3 step butterfly punch and MS for the smaller ones. I added shadow under the small butterflies. I added glitter to all of the roses and butterflies. The first and second DSP is from DCWV eastern stack. I used MS vine border punch for the vine on the right side of the roses. The leaves under the white roses I used the SU blossoms punch. I added some sukura white gel pen on the flowers for highlights. The earring were done using sukura clear glitter pen.I added glitter onto the image. The roses were made using spellbinders small die using SU cs. The white roses are SU whisper white cs. I cut a small doily in half and added it to the side of the first layer but It really doesn't show up much. The ribbon and bow is CTMH seam binding.

I hope you have enjoyed my card and found something you liked and will inspire you. 

I will enter this card into these challenges.

Beautiful Hair

Hi everyone,

There is another challenge starting at The Fairy's Blog today. Our sponsor is Sami Stamps. I have used this beautiful stamp that I will call Beautiful hair. I did have fun with this image . The card base is neenah cs and the DSP is DCWV sweet stack. Three strips were cut at 1.5 in strips and glued to the base. I printed the image onto neenah cs and cut it out with a spellbinders die. The background is coloured with SU chalks. bashful blue, mellow moss, pretty in pink. The image is coloured with copic markers. E00,000,11,31,33,35,37, R20,81, V01,12. I added a butterfly to the top left corner and added 3 pearls in the center. Pearls were also added into the girls hair. I took some flowers from my stash and added them to the right side. The white,yellow flower and the leaves were cut with the cricut and flower shoppe cartridge. I then rolled them to make the flowers. The small leaves are from MS leaves border punch using SU old olive paper. I added some glitter to the butterfly and the flowers. I hope you enjoyed my creation and that it gave you some inspiration to try something new. 

I will enter this card into these challenges.

Unusual Friends

Hi everyone,

Todays our sponsor at 613 Avenue Create is The Paper Shelter. Her images are just so cute. I printed the image onto neenah cs and coloured it with copic markers. N0,R20,81.B12,14. I also added the N0 over the pink mice to tone down the brightness. All of the papers are from DCWV pet stack. I added a layer of Dark yellow behind the image to make a frame. I cut 2 1inch pieces of the same color and used MS border punch for the top and bottom of the image. I added 2 banners from the same papers used.  The butterfly was punched from a eksuccess punch. The last was a blue twine made into a small bow. I like how the colours all came together. I will add this into these challenges.
