I just downloaded this free digi sentiment off of Papermakeup.com and just had to use my new nesties that have such an "Eastern-feel." I dug out my shimmery Paper Temptress papers...added a basic grey pattern and bling to create this gate fold card.
Penelope's wings were stamped on acetate with stazon...dusted with dazzling diamonds. Her blouse was colored in with sakura pen...gold.
I sponged the edges of the red and gold in chocolate chip to age it a bit.
So shimmery! That I hope it'll cheer up my mom when she finds it in her mail box!

I'm sure your mom will love this card and get a chuckle from the saying considering her broken limbs. I do hope she's taking good care of herself while she heals. Such beautiful colors and I love how you turned the nestie shapes to layer them.

How very clever to use acetate for those wings, Dawn - what a cute image and the Nesties you chose created a perfect bg - great coloring. Thanks for playing along with us!
