For my card today I used the stamp "Chloe".



I used my Faber Castell Polychromos pencils for coloring, and I can tell you this one was just as much fun coloring as the "Picked Sweet" image from yesterday's sneak peek.

I used a pretty simple sketch here, the blue designer paper is by stampin up, and the pretty strip of paper is by DCWV. I placed a paper doily behind the image. I really wanted to add more flowers, but they just looked like they took away from the the beautiful image, so I left them off. Instead I added a little bow and a button with some linen thread.

The sentiment is from the set "Thank you tabs 1" by Whimsy Stamps. It has been cut out using Whimsy's Tab 1 die.

I would love to enter this card to the following challenges:

• Creatalicious Challenges - M, P15 - Lace (check blog for details)
• Elisabeth Bells World - M, SIR, P25 - Stitching and Swirls
• Paper Crafting Journey - 2W - (1st week) Anything made with paper goes
• Paper Play - 2E - Something old, something new (old papers, new stamp)
  
• Pixie Dust Studio - SIO - Buttons
