Lacy Sunshine DT card - Challenge # 14

-
Our challenge for you this forthnight is to share your favorite things!!!  And for us over at Lacy Sunshine we have used our favorite digis.

Now I have to tell the whole story... when we came up with the idea of using the digi that we wanted... Heather told me that she was sure I would use this opportunity to go the dark route... As you know she has some pretty amazing darker images.  And yes... I would have probably gone that way... but this conversation sounded like a challenge to me lol.  So I told her that I would go the cute and Christmasy route... I don't think she believed me at 1st... but here's my card with the great Snowdrop image.  You can see I really did go cute and Christmasy... at least that's my version of it.


To make this card I really went all out!!!  All in Pink yup pretty out there for a Christmas card at least for me it is....   The paper is from Crate Paper - Sleigh ride.  I used my beaded square and my petite label 1 as well as my large square all from Spellbinder.  I actually embossed with the die to really make it pop and give some texture (I don't do that enough...).  I added some lace, some pink ribbon flower, a flourish and some bling all from my stash.

Here's the digi colored with my copics and to which I added some stickles.  The sentiment is from a stamp.
I really hope you have liked my card.  I'm looking forward to seeing your favorite things.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

  1. Christmas stampin - Christmas flowers
  2. Crafty catz weekly challenge - Pastel colors
