Thanks a bunch


Over at Glitter n Sparkle this week, the challenge (101) is to use a digi...
I use digis a lot on my cards... quick and easy to use, reuseable over and over
 and you can size them to whatever you need!


For this card, I used "Mixed Bouquet" from Eureka. 
I decided to use this image as a thank-you bunch of flowers.
The sentiment is from Pink Petticoat...another wonderful digi company.
I coloured the image with my promarkers and mirage pens,
and added  a little gold bow. 
The backing paper is from a dovecrafts set of flowery papers. 
To finish this card off, I embossed a line around the inner edge.
Thinking on, if I made this card again, I would colour the rose in  a much softer pink...
maybe a vintage pink colour. I think it stands out a bit too much... nevermind.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges...
Sister act - anything goes - 12 Sept
Aud sentiments - any sentiment other than birthday - 9 Sept
Hobbybook designer - girly - 16 Sept

A lovely card, you can't go wrong with PP images ! I like your backing paper and the embossed line around the edge, and although I understand what you say about colouring the rose pink, I actually quite like it in red, it draws your eye right in to the bouquet. Thanks for joining in with the Sisters of Craft Challenge, Best Wishes, Anne DT x
