This is our photo inspiration we used to make our creations aren't the colors stunning?
Here is my card using a beautiful digi image from MHKD Designs - Simple Rose
I colored this beautiful rose using Wink of Stella brushes - cut the image using spellbinders die cuts. I added some clear gloss and a fine tip applicator to make the dew drops on the rose. I still thought it needed a bit more - and I remember I had a small cross charm which I used a narrow pink ribbon with the cross attached. Made this into a square easel card using some "bling" and a die cut word FAITH.
By commenting on everyone's blog along the way our first prize give away is 3 free products from MHK Designs.
For my second card for this great blog hop I used an image from A Day for Daisies- Hepbern Dress. I loved the simple flowing dress of this digi image - and again colored it using my wink of Stella pen.
I loved how I was able to get some shading using the Wink of Stella red glitter brush and thinning it out with the clear Wink Of Stella brush. Since this was more of an "elegant" card I used a pink sheer bow tied at the corner and a bit of bling and a few sequins. The sentiment is from a retired TAC set that I have continued to hang on to. The prize from A Day for Daisies is three digis - just follow the hop and comment on each one for a chance to win 3 free digis
And from Reverse Confetti there is a $25 gift certificate.
