Can you believe it's already the middle of May? I'm trying to figure out where the first 4 months of the year have gone. Beginning to think I'm in some kind of a time warp where time fleeting passes by and I have no clue what happened or where it went...
The wonderful challenge at Elphine House Australia this fortnight is Layers and Die Cuts. The only other stipulation is that you MUST use an Elisabeth Bell image from one of the on-line stores or a digi from the Digi Store to quality for the prize. Hope you will join us for this fun challenge. Be sure to head on over to the EHA Challenge Blog for all the details and to see the gorgeous cards and designs by the team.
The inspiration for this card came from Alyce Keegan of Kit and Clowder, and with her permission, I used the sketch from her blog. I've been working with her tutorials for coloring Copics, love her style, and the depth of her coloring. As you can see, I need a lot more practice to even get close to what she teaches. She has some wonderful tutorials on You Tube if you are interested. Thank you Alyce!
