Hello all….Sorry I haven’t posted anything for a while. I have just gotten over pneumonia, bronchitis (still coughing though) and a serious, nasty sinus infection. Let me tell you…it definitely kicked my butt.
Anyhoo, I just finished a card for my Grandaughters birthday and thought I would share it with you. I just love all of the Sugar Nellie stamps but these Manga girls are adorable.
My camera skills need a little work…or a lot I guess LOL. This picture really doesn’t capture the personality of the card.
Mia, our granddaughter, is a princess…just ask her! So the only color that will work for this princess is PINK.
Unfortunately there are things on the card that you probably can’t really see. I made it a point to make the image sit exactly on the edge of the bottom layer of paper. Also I used glossy accents to puff up her hair bow and then I ended up pretty much hiding it by framing the Manga image. I have texturized her boots with copic blending solution on a piece of old terry cloth. Last I framed her to set her off and make her kind of pop out at you…which worked but I had to soften that just a bit with some whitewashing on the borders of the frame.
I then added gems with my new I-Rock tool, to the top of the frame to make it kind of look like a Crown. Last but not least I added this awesome flower that I received from Jacque. It’s from Wild Orchid flowers and I just added a little yellow stickles to give it some zip.
Materials used: Stampin Up Pink Pirouette cardstock, the DP is DCWV Sweet Stash. I used Nestabillities Labels 10 and Imaginisce assorted bling and the tool. Wild Orchid Paper Flower.
