Sooooo - if you think you've seen this card before, you are almost correct. Actually I made two cards very similar - one went to my daughter for her birthday and the other to the Challenge. The flowers on the front are the major difference between the two.
Here is my challenge card:
The cardstock is from Stampin' Up! - Tempting Turquoise, Close to Cocoa and Marigold Morning. Lady Tilda is mounted on Core'dinations Chocolate Box cardstock in teal. After running the cs through the Cuttlebug using CB's Heritage set of embossing folders, I then sanded off the brown with a sanding block revealing the teal underneath.
Tilda was stamped on X-Press It Blending Card, colored with Copic markers and cut out.
The designer papers are from My Mind's Eye Simply Delightful stack. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the Pinwheel Florettes from Webster's Pages, purchased from Angie Hunt at her store Love to Stamp. I put a tiny rose over the stamped one in her hand.
The Copics I used: Dress - BG18, 49, 45, 01, RV000, 00. Hair - E25, 31, 50. Skin - E11, 000, 00, R21. The tiny rhinestones at her neck are by Crystal Stickers. The tiny pearl in her hair is from the stash. The lace on her dress is colored with a Gelly Roll Clear Star pen. The detail on her hair ribbon is done with a gold glitter pen.
Here is the inside of the card:
These are the same cardstock and dp's as on the front.
The ribbon and lace are from my stash.
The sentiment panel is cut from SU's Crumb Cake cs with Nestabilities Labels Ten die, edged with Tempting Turquoise ink. I added a rose bud from Hooked on Crafts just to dress it up a bit.
Be sure to stop by my team mates' blogs to see their creations in teal and brown!
