**And just in case I haven't badgered you enough...A HUGE thank you to all of you that have supported me over at the Fashionista Blog :D Only a few more days to go but boy is it a close one! I would love it if you could pop over and take a closer look :D **

Howdy all! Today it is inspiration day over at Little Miss Muffet and I wanted to show one of the adorable hatters with you. Please meet Elisabeth Louise - so elegant and stylish! I have teamed her up with some new digi papers from Jessica Sprague. These are great - the whole sets just go together so nicely. The thing I love most about digi papers as they basically come already picked for you....saves me sooo much time! ;)


I am quite happy with how she turned out...I like all of the different elements on this card. I have added a heap of embellies; a cheery lynn doily die cut, pearls, cheesecloth, corrugated cardboard, ribbon, and some wild orchid flowers. That gorgeous big fluffy aqua flower is from Prima - you can't see it but is is all sparkly :) I am really enjoying playing around with corrugated cardboard...it just adds a really lovely texture :) I also added some machine stitching around the edges of all of the DPs, and even paper pieced her little flower so the top petals sat up to give some dimension.


I coloured Elisabeth using copic markers. Here are the colours that I used:

Skin: E50, E53, E00, R11
Hair: E21, E25, E29
Hat: E31, E35, E39
Dress: BG01, BG05, BG09

Challenges that I am entering with this card:

Scrapalicious - Flower Power
Truly Scrumptious - Distressing and Die Cuts
Paper Minutes - Pink, Brown, Turquoise and White
Flourishes - Bingo (I have used Pink, Ribbon, Die Cuts :)
Paper Crafting Journey - Vintage (I have distressed all of my papers to give a nice vintage touch plus to me she looks like she is from a different time too...50s? :)

Don't forget there is still one more week left to enter this week's April Showers challenge over at the Little Miss Muffet challenge blog! Can't wait to see all of your lovely creations :)
