Here's a little crafty love from me today.
I love to work with sketches and when I saw the last one at Papertake Weekly I knew I had to make something with that sketch. And with all the love bugs flying around the challenge blogs these days, I did a Valentines card.
This adorable image is from artbymiran called With a little love, as always colored in with my ProMarkers. I even colored the pearls with ProMarkers. Since I didn't find any pearls with the right color I used the darker one from the dress on some white pearls.
I'm back in my favorite stack of Maja Design papers and used both Vintage Spring and Summer collections on this one. The panels are all inked and distressed with Distress Ink Vintage Photo and I brought out my sewing machine for some stitching around the edge and on the banner.
The chipboard heart from Melissa Frances is one of my favorite embellishments, only they shed so much glitter it's not even funny! So I decided to do something about it and covered it in Glossy Accent.
It's not that easy to see in the pictures, but I dotted the heart with Liquid Pearls Platinum, and a gold gel pen. I also used the gold gel pen on her armring and the wand. The wings and hearts got some Stickles Diamond on them. The edge stamping are stamps from Kort og Godt, stamped in Distress Ink Vintage Photo.
The big flower is from my stash and so old I can't even remember where I got it. It's one of those things I never find a use for. All the other flowers and the seambinding ribbon in the back, are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
