Masked Ball at Rainbow Lady's Challenge

Hi there, i've had a really hectic week so far and I can't believe its Thursday already! My feet don't seem to have touched ground, I've been a real 'manic bird' lol. Anyway Thursday means a new challenge at the lovely Rainbow Lady's Challenge blog and our theme this week is 'Masked Ball'. We also have a generous sponsor, our lucky winner will receive a prize from Joanna Sheen!!


For my card this week I've used a beautiful stamp from Debbi Moore Designs, I love this elegant lady, she is such a 'glamour puss' lol. She is fab to colour, i've used promarkers and added a little glitter. The beautiful background scene is from Debbi Moore's 'Evergreen' CD as is the bp. The ribbon is from Crafty ribbons, the flowers are from my stash and the beautiful feather was kindly donated by my gorgeous Yellow Crowned Amazon Parrot 'Sammy'.

As a finishing touch I thought one of Crafty Ann's gorgeous Venetian Mask digi's would be  just the right embellie for this card. As usual I've coloured with promarkers and added green and gold glitter for some sparkle.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Catered Crop: I've chosen a few ingredients from the recipe -
patterned paper, ribbon and square
Flourishes Timless Tuesday: St Patricks or monochromatic green
Mami doodles: monochromatic green
Paperplay : Shabby Chic or Vintage
Stamptacular Sunday: You've been framed (I've used some gold hammered
card to frame the scene)
The Paper Variety: Let's see your green
Woodware USA: Anything goes


Thanks for visiting today, I hope you're having a good week. As usual I'm counting down to the weekend but it won't be long now :-)

  2. This is a STUNNING card Claire - your colouring is fabulous. The lady is lovely and you've managed to give the mask a gorgeous luminosity - not always easy to do with pms.
