Michelle gave us a fun challenge today.....brings out all the toys we bought , but have not used. Her challenge new beginnings inspired this card...it's for a special godchild who just became engaged. The digi looks like her as a child. My new toy that was used finally would be the maryann die. After coloring the image with chalk, embossed it with clear embossing powder over entire image...looks like glass. After I cut the die, realized it was smaller than my image...so I cut it in half and could stretch it to fit. Made some rolled roses and added a bow. I will add a little gift of money for her to start a wedding dress fund. tfl

Linda, Kayla will treasure this forever! She must have been a beautiful child. I love the idea of the clear embossing over the image - bet it's stunning IRL. Your coloring talents are amazing.

This is so lovely! beautifully colored and a great layout with those dies. This is one of my favorite images...I have several of these already colored by my hubby and haven't known quite what to do with them...you have so inspired me! Thanks for sharing.

Oh my goodness, Linda...so tender and meaningful. Your coloring is perfect for an image of a little girl, love the glass look and combined with that unbelievable die and quilled flowers.....just very, very special,
And a bit of money for the dress fund...oh sweet godmother.
