This card is for two challenges. The F4A where we were to do paper piecing, I think I have that covered and for the QFTD where Shelly, aka yo sam is our new queen. WHO HOO Shelly! Love going through your gallery. You are always so kind with the words on my cards and everyone else. I chose this card to case. I guess this is actually a case of a case. hehe......my card....
I originally was going to put several of this darling WS cow with different paper pieced dresses on one card, but she is a tad big so went with only one. Colored her with copics. Set aside.
Cut out a heart with a coluzzle. Used a gold leaf pen on the edges and added black enamel accent dots. Then retraced the heart only cut it out a little larger and ran a black copic on the edges to make it stand out a little. Glued this behind the other heart. Set aside.
My bg is three panels of mosaic tape that I paper pieced scraps on then put the three panels on a white cs panel sponging the edges.
Put this all on a black AC card. SO, I flipped Shelly's card, instead of an oval I used a heart, instead of twine a gold leaf pen AND changed the main image from a blue bird to dressed up cow. hehe
Enjoy your reign Shelly. Have a great weekend everyone!.....TFL :0)
