Well Spring is really in the air with temps in the 60's and lower 70's--I hope where ever you are that you're finally feeling some warmth in the air!
This week at
Come and Get It our Theme is "In the Garden" which is always where I want to be! The image I'm using , from Cute As a Button, is called Chasing Butterflies and reminds me so much of my daughter! We love our flowers in this family and always chasing butterflies for her 4H project!
I colored her up in my favorite medium, Copics. I like splitting the background papers-sort of balances the scene. You can see the dimensional effects I added, the cloud and the fence-both of which are shaded but the lighting makes it a little hard to see and some purple "goosebumps" in the bottom right corner.
I used paper lace under the matted picture but on top of the accent strip.
On the inside, I finished with with the dark purple design paper and a double matted sentiment--What a great card to get as a Thank You!
So now it's your turn-come over to
Come and Get It and show us your latest project. It will be an inspiration to us and love to get new ideas!
Wendy the resident artist at All Dressed Up has done it again with 4 new images ready for their new release! I got to play with "Prom Princess"-all dolled up with one of my favorite color combinations Lime and Purple! I used Ice Stickles for all the BLING on her outfit. Love how it really stands out on the images. Because she was tall and slender, I did a 3/4 cut on the card front-that way you get to see the designer paper behind the paper lace edging. I also used purple "goosebumps" faceted accents both in the front and inside.
On the inside, I finished it off with some very pretty floral paper and also a phrase that was printed on the edge of the purple polka-dot paper. Great way to have a color coordinated sentiment for your project to use this edging on the paper! Be sure to check out our blog Challenge that happens on the 15th of each month-it can be found here.
