I Picked Tuliphedgie for my project.

The background paper was from my scrapbook stash that I really need to start using. 
The cute little image was coloured using spectrum noir  alcohol pens 
These are the colours I used: FS1, FS3, CG1, CG4, PP3, PL1, PL4, TN5, GB1, GB3, GB5, GB8, TB1, DR1, DR4, IG1, and IG3, also used a white pen. 

Coloured and cut the tulip and ladybird again to use as an embellishment, faux stitched the oblong shapes, then used wonky lines on the edge of the main backing paper. 

Had great fun making and colouring this card, hope you like it 



 

I designed my card using the following sketch 467 from sketch Saturday

This is my Mid Month sample, Wanted to make a card I've not done before so I made a box card.
This card was quite simple to make.
First I stamped the tree stamps on heatproof acetate, using versa-mark and black embossing powder, used Broken china, spun sugar mowed lawn and squeezed lemonade distress inks for the background. coloured the   cut file mushrooms with spectrum noir pencils, Used a white pen and sparkle pen for highlights. Added a few Pearls to front card to finish it off.
