Sugar Bowl Challenge

Here is my entry for the Sugar Bowl sketch challenge. I was lucky enough to stamp some of these Gorjuss girls whilst at Steph's house last week (she has them all! ) Now this card is for a very special person, Marlene, who I am proud to have as one of my downline and friends! SHe has recently got promoted in Stampin Up and has done fab so I have sent her this card to say well done! As Marlene is on the DT for Sugar Nellie, what better image to use than a Sugar Nellie image, just hope she doesnt look too carefully at my colouring!!

The image has been coloured using the Stampin Up inkpads and an aquabrush. The colours used are as follows
  • Dress - Pretty in Pink
  • Hair - Creamy Caramel
  • Tights - Certainly Celery and Almost Amethyst
  • Face - Blush Blossom
  • Shoes - Almost Amethyst

The papers are from the new Tea Party range, available in my PAPER SHARE (see above) and I have used a sentiment from the Seasonal Wishes set and layered onto my Scalloped Oval punch!

I love these retro flowers and use them alot, I have added tiny circles in the larger flowers punched out with the 1/4" circle punch. I love the dimension these flowers give to the card!

The boys are back this afternoon, can't wait to see them!
