It is Time for a Thank you

Good morning, I am back with another card . I am beginning to wonder if my followers don't like the cards I am making. I can tell that people are visiting my blog. But, not many of them are leaving comments. How depressing is that. I was hoping that they followed because they liked my stuff. Oh, well.

My card this morning is made for the Basic Grey Challenge, it is a color challenge this time and the colors are Marroon, lemon (yellow) and pink. I used the paper from their Lemonade pack that I got for my birthday. This paper is gorgeous. I can't wait to get some of their other items. The sketch is from Mojo Monday. I of course used the square one. I have not figured out yet how to make a round card.



The next challenge is from the Sophisticat Challenge Blog, now you know how easy that was for me (I love my Cuttlebug and own over half of their embossing folders, working on the next half. The reason that I bought the cuttlebug was for the embossing.) , so it just fell into my plans. Let's see, that makes three. The last and final one is, I Love Digi Challenge Blog, think Pink. Once again it just fell into my plans. I love a good challenge and here I have four that just go together so well.

Now on to my card. I colored the image with my Copics. and the image is from C.C. Designs (2009). She is the Swiss Miss Rosalie. She was given to me by one of my scrapbook group and I wasn't sure what I was going to do with her. I colored ups two images, one in oranges and the other in pink. And here my card is full of pinks, so once again it just came together.

Copics used were: along with glitter and gel pens
Skin: E31, E33 (I finally got some refills and I'm ready to go)
Hair: E09, E21, E25
Shoes: Sukura gel pen pink
ribbons: Spica glitter pen pink
Dress: RV02, RV11

I used the swiss dots embossing folder and the swirls embossing folder from Cuttlebug. The ribbon was from my stash. And I tied the bow without any glue. I think I am getting better. I have never been able to tie a bow without having it wrapped around something. I used my brand new fancy tags from Spellbinders. I do love Spellbinders. The sentiment is from a clear set that I got at Michaels. The butterflies were laying around on my desk for weeks because, they had fell out of a box I was going through. But when I was finishing up this card, I looked at them and thought how they would even out the sides of the card. the card looked unbalanced and the butterflies gave it a litle balance. Well here is my card. It is getting late and I have got to get ready for work.


I don't know why but I could not get my pics to the center and I don't have time to play with it now. I hope you like my card. Please leave a little love in the comments.
