Fleur Anya

Thursday, January 19, 2012

*UPDATE - My card has just been announced as a winner of TGFs Farm Fresh Spyday Challenge!! Woo!! Thanks so much to the team at the Greeting Farm!*

Hi everyone! Today I wanted to share with you a card that I made for TGF's FFC Spyday Challenge! You can check out the original card that we are casing this week here. I think I am in a love mood as Valentine's Day is around the corner so I decided to use my Fleur Anya and my new My Mind's Eye Love Me papers to create a sweet romantic card!

I have kept the basic layout of the Spy Day card, with the sentiment tag and centralised image, though I have moved the background strip over to the left to change it up abit. Instead of using the tickets, I have used two flourish dies that I have dipped in some of my Martha Stewart Gold Glitter Powder. I thought I would try glitter again after my last card, but alas, glitter and I are still a messy bunch! ;)

I have inked all of my DPs using my Tea Dye Distress Ink to give a nice aged effect. For embellishments, I have added some gold thread, gold brads, and some flowers which I have dabbed with my Brilliant Gold Archival Ink pad.

I coloured Anya using my copics but please don't look too closely... all of my skin tone copics are running out! I am waiting on some new ones :)

Other challenges that I will be entering with this card are:

Make it Monday
Papaertake Weekly Challenge (I have some bling and blooms hapenning this week!)
Scrap-Creations (Die cut flourishes)
Sweet Stampin Challenge - Glitter

Thanks for stopping by! :)

I too am running out of skin coloured copics, my E000 ran dry this week and it seems everything I want to colour is a person! I saw your creation on MIM, and wanted to tell you how fabulous it was.
