Dream Catcher

Copics:
hair and skin tones: EOOO, EOO, E21, E71, E74, E77
wings and dress: B000, BOO, B02, BV01, BV02, B60, E0000

Yesterday I went along to my local art and craft shop with my friends and by the time I got home after a delicious lunch then got around to putting the finishing touches to this card the light had gone. So, I've snapped the picture under my work light which really shows off the sparkle! The image is a digi download from Sugar Nellie, coloured with Copics of course, then I inked the background with Sea Breeze Versamagic chalk ink, but that didn't look right so I went over it with Pretty Petunia before adding the Stardust Stickles. I've used the sketch from the Flutterby Wednesday challenge blog but turned it sideways with paper from my stash that I've also inked and stickled. The text is by Lily of the Valley stamped with London Fog Momento as I wanted a soft look, then inked and stickled too! To embellish I've punched out hydrangea flowers, butterflies and little oak leaves finishing them off with the Waco crystal pearl maker pen from Cuddly Buddly. Moving Along With The Times challenge is 'Dreams' so I'm entering my little dream catcher with them too.

  7. I love the fullness you've painted into the skirt of her dress - & that sparkle is delightful. The scalloped border around the edge of the image panel echoes the flounces on her dress so well & those hydrangeas are so pretty.Will have to look out for that punch.
