MMTPT531 - Let's Take a Book I like reading fantasy books. The print on my book paper is from a book with many children's fantasy stories inclusing Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan.
This fun Sweet & Sassy image was sent to me some time ago and I finally got around to coloring it up. Used pencils on the flowers and copics on the butterfly. Layered on a book page that I added gesso and trimmed in distress ink and gold pen. Added some swirl die cuts and ribbon and finished off with some wood butterflies that my friend Jan (Precious Kitty) sent me for my birthday - Thanks Jan!
I would love it if you would check out my Blog: Shoe Girls Cards.
Thank you for looking!

What a darling card this is Lisa using this week's colors. I love these little cone flowers and all the butterflies on this card. The coral striped bg is gorgeous and really highlights your wonderful wildflower scene here. I love how you used some wonderful goodies sent to you by friends in this card - fun! ~Karen.
