It's here! Dare to Get Dirty Week! Yeah! This project is for Kittie's challenge. Want to know more? Read about it HERE, and come join the fun!
PRE-COLORED IMAGES!!! Where have these been all my stamping life? My sweet friend Michele, (Mitchygitchygoomy) sent me a treasure trove of pre-colored images via Lili of the Valley. I cannot color to save myself! Thank you Michele!!!! (((Hugs))) These images are a dream to work with! And, you know, Copics have been thrown in this house, but none were harmed in the making of this card!
This is a birthday card for a dear friend, using this tutorial for Mini Blooms, I added a cocoa pearl to each center, and surrounded the blooms with leaves from Sizzix and a few gems from Hobby Lobby's bridal aisle. A little lace and it was done. The Kokirose Wandering stitch wrapped it up.
Thanks so much for looking!
Here is a link to Lili of the Valley Their pre-colored images are called "art pads" Have some fun!

WOW! What a gorgeous array of blooms and foliage. This image is so sweet .... 2 dear friends sharing secrets with each other (at least that's what I think). Reminds me of my dear friend and me. So kind of your friend to share pre-coloured images with you;) Your stitching, crocheted lace and pearls finished this off perfectly.

Those teal blooms and greenery are fantastic withh the addition of the baubles tucked in! Love the image but I think it's okay to harm a Copic or two in the process. Don't give up on Copics just yet Pat. Love the sewing. Awesome card!!

Wow, images colored for you....I want some of those. LOL! Lovely coloring too! And what a delightful card you've created! Sooooo cute! Love this image. Looks like they are the best of friends, sharing the best of secrets. I think I may have this image and I wonder if I could case this, and make it half as gorgeous as yours!!!! Perhaps I'll leave it to gazing at yours. Beautiful. TFS. : )
