Something a bit different for me...

Over at Glitter n Sparkle this week,  the challenge is to use real or faux stitching.

I got this fab image to play with, from Sassy Studios...called Army Honey.

The backing papers are all digi papers I have had a loong time.

(The flower is digi too!)

I've never had the chance to use it before, but knew it would be just right for with this image.

The thing that took the longest about this card, was 

deciding which sentiment I would have on it.

I knew it wasn't going to be a regular birthday card, and wanted

something a bit different...and to fit with the image. 

The flower is decoupaged with a little glossy accents and 

Sassy's helmet, vest and pants are paper pieced.

Her skin tones and boots coloured with promarkers and her

hair is coloured with watercolour pencils. 

I drew on the faux stitching.
