Spring Formal

Sassy Studio Desgins had a release today and I created a card with one of the new images. I tried to get it posted for ya'll last night but I just couldn't finish it in time. She was lots of fun to color with my copics, but I just didn't feel like it was enough so I took out a jar of Shimmerz Wintergreen Blingz and painted over her gown to give a some sparkle...LOVE how it turned out. Then I added some small rhinestones to take it to the next level. Next I decided to turn the whole card into a monochromatic one and kept the color going. The cardstock is from PTI (don't remember the color), the DP is the backing of my Verve stamps that I just went over with a copic that I used on the dress. The sparkle strip on then bottom is white mulberry paper that I color with the same copic and then went over with the Wintergreen shimmerz. I also painted the small flowers with the same shimmerz and colored the bigger flower with a matching copic as well as the bling I added to the center of it. The cardstock base was also stamped with PTI's Background Basics Text Style in Versamark.



Challenges I used:
Paper Play - pastels
Charisma - girly card with flowers
Beary Scrap - flowers
