Hi Crafty Friends,
I printed this gorgeous image from Hannah Lynn (Crafts and Me) in a washed out shade (about 25%) so I could try my hand at no lines colouring. I have only done this a few times before but I feel like practice makes perfect so I must keep trying. I can't believe how beautifully some people can do this technique on Youtube, I love watching the videos. With the background of the image I just went around her flicking out with my black Copic marker but not all the way to the edge of the circle and then I used a pink Copic marker to flick inwards from the circle edge. I added some white gel pen to give the impression her dress is sparkling.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
As you like it - fave flower and why - I love using paper roses on my cards, they are my favourite because you can buy them in the right sizes and colours to fit your project and they always look so pretty.
The Crazy Challenge - black is back
Creative Craft Cottage - must use flowers
Creative Inspirations - cute critters (owl)
Cute as a Button - fairies/love
Cute Card Thursday - something fun
Daisy Chain Challenges - add some sparkle
Di's Digis - all about love
Fussy & Fancy Friday - angels/fairies or winter
The Paper Shelter - make it digital
Winter Wonderland - spring fever - sunshine, flowers and/or romance
Have a great day,
XOX Lucy
