Isabella's Challenge - Anything Goes

This week at Isabella's Challenges we have a free theme - create whatever you feel like, just use Isabella's image.

I felt like doing something girly and flowery.




The image was printed on Neenah card and coloured with Copics. I added little accents with Sakura Stardust pens.




All the flowers and lace are from my stash, The papers are from MME, butterfly sticker from Jenny Bowlin. To finish off I added some accents with Card Candy and Pearly Writer.




Copics:
Skin: E21/00/000
Flower Pots: E57/99/35/97, YG99/95/11
Hair: E47/37/35/41, YR23
Flowers: G09, YG95, YG13, YH21, BG72, B1, BG000
Clothes: BG72, B01, BG0000, R39/37/85/83/81
Shadows: C5/3/1/00, 0

Pop over to Isabella's Challenges and check out the work of our DT. I'm sure you'll be inspired to create something as well!

I would like to enter the following challenges:
Craftalicious - Cute
By The Cute And Girly - Warm Summer Days
C.R.A.F.T. - Green and purple with gems

    Fabulous girly card and so beautifully coloured. Love all the added details. This reminds me a lot of my daughter when she a little younger than that little cutie. Unfortunately my daughter always managed to pull the pots down onto the off-white carpet just after I had watered them.
    Hugs!
