Saturated Canary Challenges DT Card

Hello again lovelies how are you all? Well today has been lush & sunny all day.......no rain & no snow!!! That Easter Bunny may get to keep his fluffly butt dry & warm when he comes to visit.

Ok so I'm back today as its time for another challenge over at Saturated Canary, wow are these weeks flying by. Now the theme this week is an easy one......
READ ALL ABOUT IT
......which basically means that your card can either be based on a book, or make a bookmark or just simply include text........ ;0) Easy Peasy right...
Now I wanted to use one of Krista's fab ne wimages but my printer has spat the dummy & wont work at the mo.....................grrrrrrr
......luckily however I had this little pretty lady coloured up in my image box ;0) I wasn't sure whether I was gonna use her though as her hair I'm not completely happy with.......but needs must & all that.

I've run gorgeous lace(cant find it ) up the side & added 'Shabby Seam Binding' down the middle. I also made a double bow with 'Cheese Cloth' & more 'Seam Binding' & a blingy button ;0)

I added a beautiful 'Zipper Pull'........so love these!! I also added the card that Sandy wraps around the
 'Seam Binding' under the image for a bit of extra text ;0)

The flowers are the gorgeous Prima 'Serenade-Blue' & the white flower is by Kaiserkraft I think. I added 'Stickles' to all the flowers.

This little lady is called 'Angels Among Us' & I have a thing for angels ;0) I have of course coloured her with copics & the floor I used black prisma pencil & sansador
Colours used............
E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000, R20
E29, E27, E23, E21
B97, B95, B93, B91
C2, C1, C00 - top & trainers & feathers with a bit of C5
I added 'Stickles' to her feathers & her eyes for bit of sparkle. I also added more 'Cheese Cloth' under the image.

The paper is the beautiful MF 'C'est La Vie', this pap really is so so pretty!!! I lightly inked the edges with Walnut DI. I also added Prima pearls to 2 corners.

All the items I have used on this card are from my 3 favourite shops.
Saturated Canary - Digi Images
Live & Love Crafts - Lace, Seam Binding, Zipper Pull, Cheescloth
My Crafty Heart - Stardust Stickles, Melissa Frances paper, Prima Crystals, Prima Flowers
you can also get Saturated Canary in rubber stamp form from My Crafty Heart.

Well thats it from me, we hope you will join in the fun this fortnight. I am slowly trying to catch up in between decorating lol. I have 90% of painting done, rest I will finish tonight then just the wallpapering to do tomorrow ;0)

Thank you for stopping by & leaving your lovely comments mmwah.
