Our Challenge for you at Paper Sundaes this week is Feminine Flair so get out all those girly, pretty bits and join in the fun. For my card today I’ve chosen a sweet Melinda image by Elizabeth Bell for WOJ
This is what I came up with:
For a closer look:
Melinda is stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa onto Copic Express Card and coloured with Copic Sketch Markers. The Copics used are as follows: skin: E11, E00, E000, R20 hair: E47, E44, E43, E42, E40 clothes: Y26, Y23, Y21, Y000, C3, C1, C00, BG93, BG90 I have added a spotty pattern to her pants using my Sharpie White Paint Marker
Her wings have some added sparkle to match the flowers using a touch of Kindy Glitz. I’ve added some Faux Stitching to the panel behind the flowers for added effect. Some Die Cuts and Swirls along with a sentiment from LOTV complete the picture nicely.
One last look:
