Just a little favourite

This beautiful image is from Small and Round called Spirals.  I decided to colour in in pink but instead of my usual pastels I decided to try a stronger colour.  All the colouring was done with Copics this time.

The image has been cut out with a Spellbinders die and then edged with Tim Holtz spun sugar distress ink.  I've also added some Stampendous embossing enamel in white.

The flowers arranged around the image are all from Live and Love Crafts and Wild Orchid Crafts - here's a close up of them.

So onto the design papers which are from Lili of the Valley.  I picked some complimenting bright pink papers with a touch of green to go with the image colours.  All edges have been distressed to give them a shabby look then layered.

There's some lace, tulle pleat, organza rose trim and flat back pearl string all from Live and Love Crafts.

My final additions were some pearl self adhesive gems and a silver butterfly bead.
