I have the most exciting news! For a couple of years now, ever since I was a GDT for their challenge, I've been slipping over to the store at QKR Stampede whenever the budget allowed and I've also played in the challenges over there nearly every week. I'm really crazy about their images!! I've specifically used QKR images to improve my coloring skills over the last several months and now I've been invited to join the QKR Stampede DT ! I'm just over the moon about that. :-D So, today's card is my first as a DT member. Our challenge theme this week is the always popular "Anything Goes."
I did a card in fall colors, using the "Bunny and Butterfly" image as a way of looking back at summer while turning toward a gorgeous fall.
The image is colored with ProMarkers and then die cut with a Wonky Square die from Spellbinders. The sentiment was added when I printed the image. I cut a second Wonky Square out of dp from my fall stash (two or three years old -- who knows?) and distressed the edges of both pieces. I used an octagon die from QuicKutz to shape the card itself and layered on dp from SU, then trimmed it to fit the octagon.
My three finishing touches were the ribbon, the bow and the flower.
