SHE'S BACK BETTER THAN EVER

Good Morning! I hope you are having fun hopping around. You should have arrived here from the very talented Carolyn's blog and you should have started at the fabulous Elaine's blog. Are you excited about the new AURORA COLLECTION 2 BY VICTORIA CASE FOR SCACD. This is one of the cutest stamp sets ever. This image is "Bee Mine. These stamps are also available in the UK at Quixotic Paperie.


This card is bright and cheerful to match Aurora's personality. She is colored with Copics and accented with Viva Decor. I used the Viva Glitter Gel Pen to accent the bee's wings and the butterfly in her hair. The wings were first painted with Shimmerz and then I used the Glitter Pen. The pearls around the frame and on the borders were made using the Viva Pearl Pen - Ice White. The papers, ribbon, and flowers are from my stash. The cute little bows were made using my favorite tool, the Bow Easy.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Corrosive Challenge - Use primary pink and blue
Create 4 Fun - Use Flowers
Creative Inspirations - Anything Goes
Creative Cottage - Lots of layers/texture
Gingersnap Creations #62 - Markers
