Good Morning all
It is all systems go over at Through The Purple Haze Challenges with our first challenge of 2014
and to start us all off it is an Anything Goes, Double team challenge so everybody is taking part
Our Sponsor this week is the wonderful crafty sentiments designs and they are offering 3 of their beautiful Digi stamps to the winner of the challenge.
The design team had a choice of some really sweet digis to choose from and I chose He Love Me and this is my creation
I wanted to try something different with this project
After printing the digi I coloured her with my promarkers using
Skin : Dusky Pink Blush and Satin
Hair :Cinnamon Shale and Henna
Then I printed her again this time onto patterned paper from my stash, and I could fussy cut her dress and shoes I stuck them on top of the original stamp with my glue pen
I wanted to keep the overall look of the card delicate so I stuck to cream embellishments and
a pink ribbon and button. The butterflies are die cut using a Sizzix die and then embossed layered and finished with gems.The corner decal is cut from a Joy Crafts die and again finished with gems.
To finish I have used an Xcut multi punch to make the oval mat she is sitting on, the cream boarder across the centre and to decorate the two right hand corners
