It is a well suited sketch, Cathy and well adapted too. I chose to use my beauty as the vertical element and have the heart wrap around her.
She's a Graphic 45 stamp which I got to color with Tessaduck's Inktense pencils a few months ago. I had fun spending the afternoon in Brenda's studio. She also let me have a go with her Zig's as well. I decided today, I would fussy cut her from the heavy watercolor paper and go play in front of that fun dp. The heart shape is cut on one side and propped for dimension. I added a pretty gem hair ornament, embossed the love from Hero Arts, stapled the panel onto a glittered mat and it was all good.
Reminds me of our dear Anne Ryan's lovely Asian Beauties. Reminds me how I miss her. Hopefully she'll be back soon, sharing us with her art and blessing us with all her encouraging.
I've been sick recently...and have Nyquil withdrawal...the only reason I can see for being awake 24 hours now...I'll suffer the full on cold next time...yawns

Oh! No! You have a cold! It didn't affect your artwork at all. This is another top of the line card. I have not been able to see too many of them lately and I am glad I didn't miss this one. Perfect colors and I love the boldness, and that her shoes match only the flower.
Love her sparkly headdress. Not much fun fussy cutting heavy watercolour paper! I always try to stamp on my light one if I'm planning to cut, but life doesn't always work out!
