Make It Colorful Challenge # 6

Shadow and Depth 


Finally, I have completed a challenge from Make It Colorful.

I had won 4 beautiful stamps from the Make It Crafty website and have been dying to use them so Zoe would know that I had received them safe and sound.  I have purchased some of the digitals stamps from Make It Crafty, based out of Australia, but I never would have thought I would own some of them in rubber.  You should have heard my DH when he saw the envelope.  He wondered what in the world had I gotten into.

On this card I am using the Peaches of Plenty stamp to frame ching chou kuik's "Radiant Butterfly" from SweetPea Stamps.   I really tried to create the folds in her collar using some of the Warm Grey copics along with the colors.  The paper is Basic Grey.  The small roses are from www.iamroses.com I colored with copics I used on the image and distressed with Distress Ink.  The ribbon rose is from Odanata Creations, check out her You Tube.


I have to also mention that I "lifted" the color scheme from Angela at In My Quiet Time, she creates gorgeous images and cards.   Her version of  "The Radiant Butterfly" is much richer and deeper, beautiful, but I am learning.
