I decided to make an easel card for this image and used my favorite colour - PINK!!! (can you tell I like pink, just a tiny little bit).
I followed a few challenge guidelines in order to create this adorable card: follow a sketch for LSHD (check), use pink, navy & white (check), favorite colour (check-pink!), anything goes (check-easy!), digital image-anything goes (check & check), make an easel card (check) & make your own flower (check). Wow that is a lot of stuff but I think the card turned out wonderfully!
Normally I am my worst critic but I have to say I LOVE MY CARD! LOL!
Here is a frontal view of the card......
SUPPLIES USED:
* 5X7 White Card
* Digital Image Bear with Ribbon from Little Scraps of Heaven
* Pink sentiment from C.C. Designs
* Navy & pink cardstock from Michaels-Recollections
