Vanessa
Vanessa - This was the final card for the fun activities week that we had at Michelle Perkett's group on Paper Craft Planet. This challenge was the one hour challenge using any MP image with a quote. Being the event coordinator, I did have more than one hour to make my card. And boy did I need more than an hour. LOL I am exhausted after our fun, full week.
This image is Vanessa, by the fabulous Michelle Perkett. She made this one as a gift to me. If you look at the bottom right hand corner, you will see my name. Michelle added my name to the image. How cool is that!
I used Copics to color the image and the sparkly heart in her dress was colored using a pink Spica pen. I used my Sakura pen to trace around the flowers on her dress, and using a technique that I learned during a make and take at the convention, I smudged it with my finger.
My Dp is from my scrap drawer. I don't remember who made it. I used some heart lace and weaved a thin strip of the gemstone paper through it. The big pink flower is Recollections. The other two flowers are Prima's. I airbrushed the brown, then stacked another Prima on it. I quilled a punched swirl for the center of the flowers. The little buds on the ends of my flower spray are buds that I cut off a bush.
