Special Friend


We're using images from DigiStamps4Joy this month.  I've decorated the inside and outside of my card this time using two of their images.



The first you can see here is Daffodil.  I've used a very clean design for the front of my card just using some black card to create a frame.
Added to the front are some tiny wooden hearts made into butterflies, there are a few rhine stones for bling and interest.

On the opposite side is a laser wood chip embellishment from Miszmasz and also a sentiment.

The second image is Juliette, inside the image at the time of printing I added a Happy Birthday sentiment.  She's also been framed with some black card.


All my colouring was done with ProMarkers, Copics and polychromos pencils.

Here's one of the sketches for today.


As you can see Juliette makes up the centre panel.  For the side openings I've used two doilies.  Behind this are two sections of the same design paper from 



Here's a close up of the panel with Juliette.  I've chosen to use hot colours to contrast with the black.


Hope you like my inspiration for today and we see you at the challenge
