Shine on!

Today I want to show you a card I made for a really lovely person who's name I can not say cause she IS reading this blog. So it's a secret. Hush!

I used another one of Isabella's images I HAD TO get when I stumbled upon her shop. I think she has a really fun and original images.

Colouring was done with Copic markers with a TINY bit of Sakura Stardust and Clear Glaze.

The papers are from Pink Paislee Bayberry Cottage line, I wanted a really strong pattern with a hint of retro. I also wanted to challenge myself to use purple which is normally not my favorite colour to work with. It shows cause I didn't really have Copics to match the paper exactly.

Brads, ribbon and crochet flower are from my stash.

I would like to enter following challenges:
The Crafty Pad - Stitching
Allsorts Challenge - Stitching
Stamp Something - Something Layered

Thanks for looking and happy crafting!

Hugs
Annika

Oh my goodness, Annika, I had to laugh at your comment about my pie card - that my work would make yours look bleedin' feeble! I wish I had half the coloring skills you have!! YOURS is the amazing talent, my dear. I have just begun to explore your blog and have seen what a wonderful talent YOU have. Look forward to seeing much more of it!
