Dream Big

Here’s my card for this week’s Mojo Monday sketch. I went with one of the My Favorite Things à la mode girlies for this sweet card.

The moon-perched girl is colored with Copic markers to coordinate with the small multicolored patterned paper panel she’s layered over. I added a pale blue outline to the edges of the image for a hint of sky around it. The set’s “dream big” sentiment is stamped in the open space in blue ink.

The panels are layered on a blue gingham patterned panel. I machine stitched around the panel, keeping pretty close to the edge so the stitching would still be visible with the panels in place. A strip of blue grosgrain ribbon stretches across the cardfront, flush with the top of the small patterned paper panel. A super shiny silver wood star made the perfect finishing touch for the card.
