Sitting with my pens to color an image is something I haven't done for quite some time and it is nice to take the time out to get back to it .... if only for a short time
This image is from a Lily of the Valley paper stack that I have had for a long time ... in fact I think it was free with a magazine
I used Chameleon Pens and then went ahead and made the card.
The dotty card is from AnnaMarie Designs and I have lined the inside with the same card
The ribbon is from Mei Flower and I have tied it into a single bow at the top of the card.
The flowers just tumble down from the bow and they are from Wild Orchid Crafts and are a lovely mixture of Chrysanthemums, Gypsophillia, Tulips and Roses
The panels behind the flowers is another one that has been embossed with Grate Effect and then I rubbed a pale pink ink pad over it to accentuate the design
Altogether a really pretty card and a very pleasant hour or two for me to color it in.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
so beautiful.

ReplyDeleteHi Christina
ReplyDeleteAnother stunning card today. I think I need this grate effect die. It looks so different with an ink pad rubbed over it.
Beautiful card-perfect for Easter but could be used for other occasions.

Thank you for all you do. Enjoy a beautiful day.
