Hello everyone on this cold and rainy day, spring can not come to soon for me. At least we will be able to turn the clocks ahead this weekend, YEAH!!!! Okay now to the card, the challenge from COPIC Creations is to use complementary colors on our cards. I started out with Paper Trey Ink white cs as my base, I also used it for my bottom layer that I dry embossed with a folder from Provo Craft called Scrollwork. My focal image is from JustRite's Birdhouses stamp set. I colored the image with Copic markers and applied Star Dust Stickles, and used a die from Nestabilities classic circles to cut it out, and used my mat pack to add faux stiching marks. I also used a die from the Nestabilities scalloped circles to cut the pink cs backing out. I added a sentiment from JustRite's You Inspire Me stamp set, using Memento's Rosebud ink. I finished the card with a ribbon from Offray.Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day.

I colored her with my Copic Markers and die cut her out with my nestabilities classic circle large, I also cut out the Lacy circle as a backing in gold foil to accompany the circle cut out of xpress-it blending card. I love this paper for coloring with my copics, they blend so well.My base for this card is from Gina K, the 120lb pure white cs, I used PTI plum pudding as my base layers. The design paper on the bottom is from K & co., and the other design papers are from DCWV Nanna's Nursery. I used Prima flowers on the left upper part of the card and on the center of the ribbon. The embelishments on the ribbon are from spellbinders Fancy Holiday dies. On the green pocka dot paper under the ribbon I used a EK Success punch I think it is called swiss cheese. Finally I added rhinestones from Queen & Co. to the image in lavendar. I hope you have a great day, and thanks for stopping by.
