And to help us with our goal, the fabulous folks at Stamping Boutique have generously provided the design team with a few gorgeous digis. I'm playing with this super cute Mail Girl.
 |
| The paper is from BoBunny and I heat embossed the greeting with Stampendous Fine White EP. This is a super quick card - so NO stitching ... and let me tell you that was NOT easy for me! LOL |
 |
| Here's a close-up of the little Main Girl. I coloured her with Graph'It markers and added little dots in Baby Blue Liquid Pearls in the bg to add interest to the falling snow. Then I layered her on SB die cut. |
 |
| Told you it was a quick make - I made FOUR and even managed to ring the changes in her outfit: green, pink, red and purple. |
A few challenges for this card:

Asha love the image and your beautiful papers to go with her! Great set of cards!! Your little Richard Parker is quite the character :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Asha, I don't know which is more precious -- your darling cards or the "partridge"! lol I love that you did the little girl's clothing a different color for each card and then matched that color in the border. What a creative idea. Excellent design for multiple cards.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty, Asha! I love how you colored this image and the angled red matte is so very clever. It makes your entire design stand out so beautifully. Your "partridge" is quite a cutie! Have a great day today. ~Donna K

A beautiful card. Your image is gorgeous and coloured perfectly and your backing paper is very pretty. A wonderful picture of Richard Parker, my cats love sitting in the Christmas tree too, but it normally ends with the tree flat on the floor as all twelve try to fit in it at once. Thanks for joining us at Crafty Cardmakers and More. Sally D.x.
