Ballerina Anyone?



Made this card using one of my "forgotten" Anya stamps. Since I still don't color well with the Copics, I decided to stamp the image on blush blossom card stock to minimize the space I needed to color. In fact, I think the only part I actually colored was her hair... lol! Her tutu and shoes are paper pieced together. I added some stickles to her crown too. The background of the card was embossed with a HK embossing folder. The paper is from the DSP pack Springtime Vintage. I did my best to try to spruce the card up by adding in some Victoria Crochet Trim & rhinestones, but I don't think I did it much justice. Oh well, back to the drawing board for me... hehehe!



Before I go, I wanted to share this beautiful card and RAK that was sent to me by Kacie. Look at that crochet flower in the middle? I think I need to show the flower to my mom and ask her to crochet a few of these for me because all that I can crochet is a "snake" or at least that's what I call it... lol! Thanks again Kacie!
