Karen gave us some beautiful, bright colors to work with this week, Real Red, Old Olive and Daffodil Delight, with white embossing for dessert.
First I stamped the adorable little girl and her knitting, then stamped her again on masking paper, cut out the mask and put it over the card.
I used my new air compressor with Copic Markers to create the background for this card. Then I colored the little knitter, and added some flowers along the ground.
Karen, my little girl is very grateful for your dessert option, as she would never have had white patent leather shoes without it!
I added a couple of die-cut butterflies and the sentiment, and it was done! This card will be sent to a dear friend, who has been my BFF for over 50 years!
