Well, I made it. I have had a very busy weekend and I actually got some crafting done. And this is my favorite. It is for my daughter and it covers Valentine's Day and her birthday. Hey, the inside and out are done. So one is good. The image is from Bugaboo Stamps, the image used is Scarlett and the challenge at Catch the Bug Challenge blog is Anything goes.
The paper colors are bronze, beige tan with some brown, blue and cream in the Basic Grey striped(Cappella) I really do love the Basic Grey papers. The paper that I printed my sentiment on is cream crackle paper from the Paper Studio. The bronze paper that I embossed with the hearts folder from Cuttlebug is also from The Paper Studio. The roses are from Recollections at Michaels. The card base and first layer which is embossed with the Cuttlebug swiss dots folder is Bazzill. since the stripped paper had some blue I used 3 rhinestones to pick up the blue in the paper. the LOVE charm is from my stash and were bought at Stamp and Create. I used the Martha Steward leaf punch. The brown pearls are some that I won in a wonderful prize last year. The image was colored with copics E11, E13, E15, E00,E09, E51, YG95, W5, I used the spica glitter pens sand and silver. The funny thing about that is that the colors look bronze on the dress, shoes and purse. Around the edges of the image I tried to tone down the white paper by using bronze (ink dot) ink, just a little distressing withoout going over board..
I am having so many problems with lighting in my craft room/office. I am really hoping that the photography class that I am starting on Tuesday will help me to get better photos of my cards and scrapbook pages.
