Sass 'n Class

Hi there! Happy Tuesday!  Hope you had a good day!  It was another busy one for me, but I did manage to get a little crafting done between appointments, so I'm here to share a card I made for a challenge and a Guest Design Team call.  It is for the Craft Your Passion Challenge #106 (diecuts and punches) and the Guest Design Team Call on The Digi Bells blog (use ribbons/lace and any Elisabeth Bell image).

Here is my card:


I started with a card base of SU Wild Wasabi and layered with pretty floral patterned paper from the Kaisercraft Miss Nelly 6.5 x 6.5 pad.  My beautiful Elisabeth Bell image is Belles 'n Whistles Sass 'n Class.  I stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Cryogen White and colored her with my Copics.  I added a bit of Stickles to her jewelry and shoes for a little sparkle.  I diecut the image panel and mat with Spellbinders Petite Scallop and Classic Ovals. I added some Baby Blue Liquid Pearls around the scalloped frame.  The flourish is a diecut made with my Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish die.  I threaded some pink satin ribbon through some pretty lace and added it beneath my image panel.  A few Wild Orchid Crafts roses finished off my card.

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you'll visit again soon!

    P.S. I've never forgotten your take on Elizabeth for the Copic challenge at TO. I looked at it several times for color inspiration for my tag. I love that card. :-)
