Saturated Canary Catching Butterflies in Peach

Image
By sparklingblackrose
Good morning everyone, hope you are well :-) Here I am with a card made using my new favourite Saturated Canary digi-she's gorgeous! I started by colouring her in Promarkers, Flexmarkers and Copics to match the peach tones in my My Minds Eye papers. I then placed her on a mat of peach glitter card cut round her as a border. I cut my main patterned paper in interesting angles and then placed it on two other patterned papers from the stack. I then used another as a border. I then embellished with butterflies cut from peach glitter card with a Memory box dies and the same for the butterfly border. Lastly I added a 'Happy Birthday' greeting.



I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Crazy Amigo Challenges: Punches or Dies
Creative Card Challenges 2: Summertime
