I am back off holiday!

Having not made a card for nearly 2 weeks, I went on a bit of a sharp learning curve for this!!
It fits these challenges:

Simon Says Stamp - recipe (1 image, 2 dp, 3 types of embellies)
Stampavie and More - dots
Everybody Art Challenge - things with wings
Charisma Cardz - spots and stripes
Just Magnolia - sketch
Allsorts - lace &/buttons
Basic Grey Challenge - turquoise, brown and cream
Magnolia Down Under - swirly swirly

I used my promarkers to colour the image and then cut her and some of the bubbles out. I matted her onto an embossed circle and glittered it and her. I coloured the buttons using my promarkers to match the papers and layered flowers. I added more glitter, some lace, the bubbles, glittered and glossed, and some gems (oops that makes 4 embellies doh!!!).

I have some Penny Black stamps for sale ... you can find them here. I am also gonig to be adding some Sugar Nellies, WOJ and RAM later if you are interested.


Recipe:
Stamp(s): Tilda blowing bubbles
Colouring Media: promarkers
Papers: Basic Grey Blush and unknown
Embellishments: from stash
