Chinese New Year will be here before you know it, so I decided to use today's sketch by making a card for my sweet DGD who just happens to be Chinese!! My card base is Lost Lagoon of which I attached a large mat of DP. The circle is DP matted on Pink Pirouette. My image & sentiment were stamped in Momento Black. I colored my image with a combination of Spectrum Noirs & Blendabilities. I used a Spice Gold Glitter Pen to add color & glitter to the collar, buttons and fan. I then used my new Spectrum Sparkle Markers to add a glittery sheen to he dress. After matting on Lost Lagoon and Pink Pirouette, I popped both the image & sentiment pieces. Last I attached some gold pearls. I have some really cute little girl Chinese stamps, but DGD is 11 now, so "really" Grammy, no baby stamps please!!!!!!!!! TFL ladies.
