I wish I could get a better picture of this, because IRL it is pretty with the soft pastel colors...but my camera isn't cooperating with the different shades of green and it is time to move onto another project before I begin to resent this one.
This card is my creation after looking at IC116. I was drawn to the pillows and selected this never before inked stamp and used some of the colors in the inspiration piece to color and coordinate this card.
Main image is from Stampa Rosa, stamped with Marvy Dye ink on Sterling Matte Coated paper. I colored the image with Copic markers. Stamped the sentiment with Karen Foster Snap Stamps. I stamped Hero Arts layering circles with Versamark on the soft green panel. Took a Signo White pen to do some dotting. Used some scrap patterned paper and adhered some panels with some brads....and there you have it. The ribbon is much softer IRL too.
I used Beatte's Weekend Sketch Challenge, WSC36 for the layout.
Thanks for some great challenges, and thanks for looking.

Oh how I love those pillows. I wanted to do something with those myself, but didn't have any thing pillow oriented. Thanks for fullfilling my vision! And love that little chickie!
