Agnes Elephant Ice Skating - Polkadoodles NEW Release

A New Baby Girl at Christmas For this card I decided to use Agnes Elephant Ice-Skating from the NEW 'Too Cute Winter Wonders' Collection  Oh how cute they all are! I coloured her using Arrtx Alcohol Markers, keeping to pink and white only.  Then the idea came to me - a Christmas baby card!  I used 6x6 Park Life Stencil using light pink ink and embossed with a shimmery white embossing powder. I die cut a simple square and did the same with embossing. I then attached a white filigree die-cut frame. The leaves are ivy die-cuts and the edges inked in pink. I finished the card off with attaching 2 pink paper mulberry roses, a sweet little white satin bow-tie and a suitable sentiment to welcome a new baby at Christmas. I just love how this card has turned out!  It's difficult to see in the photos, but it's all shimmery and glistens in the light I'd like to enter the following challenges: World Wide Open Design Team #11 Holly and Ivy #84 The Fairy and the Unicorn - Nove...

Myrell in Purple

  Myrell in Purple   This beautiful image is from illustrator, Sybile Art.  She's called Myrell and I think she's adorable! I decided to stick with purple tones and used a combination of Copics and Arrtx markers. I added some texture paste to the edges of the square die cut.
