This lovely little sprite from
AuroraWings caught my attention when I was at their store choosing images from my win in last month's challenge. :-D She's called Wild Rose Sprite but I colored her in peachy gold colors to look like the rambling roses my mom cultivated along the back porch arbor when I was growing up. That's my absolute favorite color for roses to this day!
but I flipped it side to side so that it's reversed
and lengthened the horizontal to better fit the
shape of my image.
I colored with ProMarkers, then die cut the image with one of my Spellbinders dies. I inked the edges with black ProMarker. I started digging through my scrap basket and found that beautiful paper which mirrored the colors I had used in the image. What is odd about it is that I simply don't remember ever having seen that paper before! It was the only scrap like it and I did a quick look-through of my paper stacks but nothing like it exists in my stash. Hmmm, oh well, call it a lucky find or a miracle, I love how it "made" this card !
The black strip is fabric ribbon that came in a card kit but I didn't use it for either of those projects so it was waiting for me when I wanted something out of the ordinary for this one. I printed and hand cut the sentiment, then sewed together the tiny, pink bow with the pearl. It looks bright pink in the photo but is actually a perfect match for the pink card base, visible around the edges of the card.
