Sophie In The Country

It’s time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog and this time the challenge is…..

‘Flower Power’.

This week, as always, we are sponsored by The Paper Shelter and Veronica & Pedro are offering a fabulous prize of $30 to spend at their site.

If you use a TPS image in your creation you will receive the full $30 to spend on their gorgeous designs, and if you haven’t used a TPS image then you will win 3 Digis of your choice from their site.

The Paper Shelter have lots of great images suitable for this theme and I chose to use Sophie in the Country.

My image was stamped onto Cryogen White cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with Copic Markers. The colours I’ve used are: Skin – E11, E00, E000, E0000, R20; Hair & Fence – E47, E44, E43, E42, E40; Pants & Hat – V99, V95, V93, V91; Top – V25, V22, V20.

Here’s another view.

And a close up of the image.

The pretty papers I’ve used on this card are from Bildmalarna and is called Sweet Tones – Purple Flowers. I’ve used Spellbinders Small Classic & Scallop Nestabilities to cut out and layer my image. My card front has been edged with the Flourish Lace ‘Around the Page’ Punch from Martha Stewart. My flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and Kort & Godt. I’ve added a piece of Shabby Seam Binding to my flowers and then a Vintage Faceted Button with a Pearl addition. The lovely sentiment is from Lili of the Valley. Add a few pearls and my card is finished.
