Hi Crafters,
I was lucky enough to win a recent challenge at the Quirky Crafts challenge blog and I was asked to join in this week as Guest Designer - thank you Cazzy.
The challenge theme this fortnight is 'For The Quirky Girls' and as an added challenge you must only use two colours apart from skin and hair colour.
I hope I've met the requirements with this red and green card although I have some white in there too.
Meet 'Missy' she is a fabulous digital image from Jiggery Makery on Etsy.
She is coloured with my Letraset Pro/flexmarkers and I have added a sprinkling of glitter strands to the edges of her dress and hat.
I've used core'dinations card stock with a Sue Wilson embossing folder - Swirling Holly and a Cuttlebug folder for the dotty snow background.
My sentiments are Britannia Christmas Word Dies and Clearly Besotted 'Husband' word stamp and die from the 'My Hero' sets.
...and lastly a Tonic 'Festive Gift' die which I have backed with coloured card.
She's a bit saucy isn't she? but I love her.

Love it Lorraine beautifully coloured card with great embellishments
ReplyDeleteShe looks fabulous, lovely shading and a fun card. White never counts as a colour does it, it would be hard to cut it out of everything so I'm sure it fits. Grats on your guest spot I'm sure they were thrilled to have you :) xx
