Hi everyone, hope you are all enjoying the bank holiday weekend. I've made this card with a gorgeous freebie image from CJ at Cowgirl Up Stampen Ranch, Isn't she a cutie? Why not pop over and have a look round the shop - CJ has the most gorgeous digistamps to tempt you.
The image is printed on to pearlescent paper which is fab for promarkers, they blend really well on this stuff (I just wish I could remember where I got it lol). I usually struggle colouring animals but I used my trusty promarkers and I'm quite pleased with the pony. I dusted the edges of the image with some fresh green versamagic ink and then ran around the edge with opera pink ink. I've followed this weeks sketch from Papertake Weekly Challenge using some papers that were free with Making Cards magazine ages ago. I've added some flowers, brads, a little butterfly charm and some spirals of green memory thread to finish off.
I'm also entering this card in the following challenges:
Creative Card Crew where the challenge is 'Pink and Green'
Creative Cottage where the challenge is 'Blooming Charming'
One Stitch at a Time who are asking us to use something new (my new item is the lovely image)
Passion for Promarkers: Anything goes (its my second entry for this challenge - wow you need to see the FAB prizes they have up for grabs to celebrate their first anniversary)
