Ditzie Digi Designs - New Challenge xx

Today a New Challenge has begun over at Ditzie Digi Designs Blog and the Theme as Always is Anything Goes - why not visit the blog to see the Design Team Inspiration and get those entries in - we would love to see them :)

Here is my Design Team project for the challenge

 I have chose to use 'Hello Sweetie' by Kelly Rhodes of Ditzie Digi Designs

I really love this Image she is so cute and so lovely to colour

I have used my Copic Markers to colour the Image - I chose a backing paper in a similar check and then coloured the Image to match this paper. Matt & Layering is using aqua Core'dinations cardstock and rolled gold Mirror Board. I chose a strip of Burlap to add some texture and interest down the side. I then also die cut a circular die using core'dinations and inked the edges with walnut stain distress ink and tucked this and a Lace Doily behind the Image Topper. The little pocket watch is a Joycrafts die which i cut using rolled gold mirror board and i distressed it using a nail file for an aged look. The greeting is a polymer stamp by 'Dreamee's' - I added a few blue flat back pearls to finish off the card.

I hope you like my project and will join in the Challenge this week :)
