My Star Bestie

 My Star Bestie
I am in love with My Besties images from Sherri Baldy. They are such a joy to colour!
For this card I used Stars in Your Eyes. I coloured her using ProMarkers. I inked up the edges of a rectangle die cut using Distress Oxide, attaching to a larger rectangle die cut. This was then put onto a 5x7 card with lilac and pale blue backing paper - inking the edges again. The butterfly is from Bumpy Road Stamp Set and the sentiment if from Winnie Sunshine Delights - both Polkadoodles. I attached mulberry roses to match, and some die cut leave sprigs.
I finished off by making a triple bow in white, purple and lilac spotty organza and adding a flat back gem.  
Super pleased with the results!
