Woman With Roses

Good morning!  Happy Monday! Hope your week is off to a great start!  I am back from my trip to the frigid Northeast.  It was really cold in MA, but at least I got in and out between their snow events, so I didn't encounter any travel issues.  Now they are predicting possible freezing rain for AL again! Enough already with the winter weather!  Anyway, I am here to share a card I made using another of the gorgeous images from Mitzi Sato-Wiuff of AuroraWings.  I am really enjoying coloring Mitzi's beautiful digis!
 
Here is my card:


My card base and mats are SU Garden Green and the patterned paper is a digital paper from Whimsy Stamps that was offered as a freebie in the Whimsy Stamps Magazine Vol. #7.  The gorgeous image is Profile of a Woman With Roses from AuroraWings Etsy shop. I printed her on MiC Blending Card and colored her with my Copics  I didn't add a sentiment this time and I kept my embellishments to just a few pearls as I didn't want to take away from the image.

Here is a close-up of the image:


Thanks for stopping by!  Once I get settled in, I'll be around to catch up on the visiting that I missed while I was away.

I am entering my card in the following Challenges:

    Carla, this is just beautiful! I love how you always coordinate paper and image so perfectly. Prediction here is for up to 8" of snow followed by sleet/freezing rain....I am pretty much done with winter myself!

    This is so gorgeous! I love her images and need to print off and color some that I have. Your coloring of her hair is especially beautiful. Your coloring is always beautiful but the hair seems like you can see each strand. Awesome card.
