For Fun Challenges with an Elizabeth Bell Digi Image

Don't ya just love this digi stamp!  She is titled "A Tasty Read" by Elizabeth Bell and is available here.  She also has other digi stamps so be sure to check them all out.  I've gotten to where I'm almost always cutting out my stamps and attaching them with dimensionals. Probably because I haven't been able to get the background airbrushed to my liking.  Oh well, I like the dimension it adds and think it puts more emphasis on the image....

Thanks to Helen for this great sketch over at For Fun Challenges

Recipe: DP Basic Grey Sugar Rush Pad
Again, sorry! No copics list because I colored her awhile back
Sentiment from Inkadinkado stamped in Black Memento Ink
Flowers were cut out using EZ flower punch, medium and small.
Spellbinders classic oval and scalloped dies
Ribbon and brads from stash

Thanks so much for stopping and I hope you leave me a comment to let me know you were here so I can come visit to see
what's happening in your world.
"Hugs" Granny

Your card is adorable and the colours that you used to compliment the digi image 'A Tasty Read' make me want to find a stump and read myself. Beautiful =)

OMG you thought of flipping the image!! What a great idea! Also you must check out the way I did my book back at the beginning of February and tell me great minds don't think alike!! I went through a phase of cutting out a lot of my images awhile ago. I felt like my plain white background was boring. I got past it tho. LOL!! Very pretty card and your coloring is VERY good!
