My card for this week features FRESH BREWED DESIGNS digi "Beautiful you." I love to color images of people - as if you hadn't noticed;), so of course, I had fun with this image.
I chose blue violet Copics for her clothes and bow and used Atyou Spicas for the cupcake on her shirt. Image cut with Nesties as is oval, frame and sentiment. I swithed the sketch elements because I thought the sentiment looked better at the top because of the position of the arms of the image. Sentiment is from Inky Antics, stamped and distressed with Staz-On timber brown. Flowers are Prima, layer behind image is textured EK Success and other DP is The Paper Studio. Thanks so much for looking and hope you join our challenge!!
