United in Love

Usually my coloring is just mediocre. I've always wanted to take some coloring classes to improve but have never taken the time to do it. Once in a while I luck into something that I really think I did a good job on. This card is one of them.

I really like how her hair and the flowers turned out. The card came together nicely I thought. The image is from Bugaboo stamps called Pretty Bride. The background paper I won from (A Bit More Time to Craft) Papers by Lozzy called Anika. The sentiment is from Beccy's Place Wedded Bliss Digital Stamps. The strip is from a Martha Stewart Border Punch. I used MFT Stitched Circles and Spellbinder's Scalloped Circles die cuts. To finish off I added small pearls around the scalloped circle. This card is for the bridal shower this Saturday for me future DIL. We'll be headed for Boston so I can go to that. I'm happy with this card! I am entering these challenges:

• Stella Sketch (Catch the Bug): sketch 
  
• A Bit More Time to Craft: anything goes
• Through the Craft Room Door: anything goes
• Bugaboo Crafty: use a Bugaboo image
• Simon Says Wednesday challenge: girl power
• Pile It On challenge: circles
• Alphabet challenge: Y for your choice

I forgot to say what I used to color. The hair and flowers are using Koh-i-Noor Woodless Pencils and mineral spirits. The rest is American Craft markers. I am beginning to love mixing different coloring mediums. Hope you like it too. Thanks for stopping by today. Tomorrow I have 2 meetings and getting ready to fly out to Boston very early on Friday morning. So if I don't make it back here before next week, have a wonderful weekend!
