Here is my card:
I used SU Taken With Teal cardstock for my base and mats and I layered with patterned papers from the My Mind's Eye Six By Six A Mother's Love and Everyday Flair 6x6 paper pads. My cute image is Lotus Sitting Pretty from Guylou's Inimitability. You can find her in Guylou's store here. She was also generously provided by Guylou as a freebie to subscribers of the on-line craft magazine, Through The Craftroom Door. If you haven't done so already, you must check out this fabulous magazine! Every issue is packed with crafty goodness and freebies that are only available to subscribers. I printed Lotus on X-Press It and colored her with my Copics. I added a bit of Stickles to the all of the flowers and her shoes and belt. The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC. I didn't add any embellishments so Lotus could take center stage.
Here is a close up:
My card is also for Papertake Weekly #78, which was to use any sketch from a previous PW challenge. I chose Sketch #68. It is also for Charisma Cardz Challenge #34 (no embellishments) and Simon Says Stamp (anything goes).
