Courage

Hi again!  I'm back with a super-quick, second post to share a card I had in the works and just finished up.  It's going to be a busy weekend, so I thought I'd pop in and share it today.
 
Here is my card:
 

My card base and mats are GKD Innocent Pink and the patterned papers are from the Webster's Pages Postcards from Paris (I) Petite Papers pack.  The beautiful image is Blossom from Delicious Doodles.  I printed her on MiC Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added Stickles to the flower centers and butterfly and Ice White Pearl Pen to her bracelet.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I punched a butterfly out of pink glitter paper and added a few pearls to its body.  A few more pearls from my stash finished my card.
 
Here is a close-up of the colored image:


Copic Colors:
Skin: E000, E00, E21, E11, E04, R20
Hair: E50, E53, E39, E59
Pink: RV10, R81, R83, R95, R89
Green: YG01, G21, G94, G99

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great evening and I'll see you soon!

I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Delicious Doodles Challenge #85 (pink and girly for breast cancer awareness)
