Totally Papercrafts Challenge

This week Totally Papercrafts challenge theme has been choosen by Dora, and she has chosen a nice easy one - 

pearls and lace

I used this gorgeous image, Pricilla Pie, from Saturated Canary and coloured her in using my promarkers.  I added some teeny flat backed pearls to her hair, and some larger black ones to the image and the punched flowers.  The dp is Bo Bunny, and I punched the flowers out of white cardstock and stamped a swirl stamp over it.  Finally some black lace trim to finish it.

We are sponsored by Crafty Emma's Store
Challenges:
Saturated Canary - punches and dies
Moving along with the times - blooming marvellous
Paperplay - lovely lace
Winter Wonderland - Swirls and pearls
