A card for Mummy...

 

Hi Ladies

Today it's my DT card for The Sugar Bowl Challenge - the theme is 'Mother's Day/Special Lady' - and I was asked to do a card for a little girl to give to her Mummy...  

I chose to use a digi image...  Princess..  and although the colours show purple on the photograph, they are more a muted lavender in real life!  Cameras do lie!

Materials used:
Image: Sugar Nellie Princess
Papers: First Edition New Bloom (from my lovely OH at Christmas)
Colouring: Copics V000, V01, V06, V12 and Promarker Fuschia Pink
Shading Copics N0, N2, N4
Dies: L'il Inkers Stitched Rectangles, MFT Dienamics Flower Trio, La la Land Stitched Tab
Lace, Seam Binding, Pearls and Glitter from stash
Sentiment done on PC

Hope you like my card and will pop over to The Sugar Bowl to see what the lovely ladies on the DT have come up with..  then we'd love to see your entries for a special lady using a Sugar Nellie image.  Don't forget you can win a fabulous prize of some gorgeous rubber stamps  if your card is chosen as the winner!

Thanks to all for your time visiting my blog, and any comments you leave.  I do love to hear from you if you have time to say hello...

    This is the sweetest card Christine - love the choice of image and the DP in shades of purple is gorgeous :-)
    Your shading is fab on her dress and hair and I especially love the dotty shading around the image so she just 'pops' off the card!
    I love all your cards but something about this one is just extra specially wonderful :-D And it's not even pink!
    Big hugs, Kat xx
