Susana's Custom Art & Card Design/Paper Craft Planet Blog Hop

TGIF and welcome to Susana's Custom Art & Card Design/Paper Craft Planet blog hop! 10 designers are hopping along, each creating something amazing with the SCACD Elisabeth Bell & Victoria Case stamps.

My card uses the pretty Elisabeth Bell Heartstrings image. I colored the image using Copic markers. I don't use shades of purple too often, so I decided to go with that for the image. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Since the purple worked so well for the colored image, I kept with an all purple color scheme for the rest of the card. I used some delicately patterned pale plum paper across half of the cardfront, divided diagonally. A strip of ribbon runs along the diagonal edge. I added a button-embellished bow to the top left corner of the image panel. The image panel is positioned a little closer to the bottom of the card than to the top to accommodate the bow.

Hop along with us and leave us some love and you could end up winning one of 3 generous prizes: 1 sheet of the Elisabeth Bell for SCACD Sampler #3 OR 1 sheet of the Victoria Case for SCACD Hearts and Hugs - Spring Collection (new Release) OR 1 Viva Decor Pearl Pen in Ice White!
