3 in 1 Challenge Card


Its not that often that I get to fit 3 challenges in 1 but have achieved it with this card which I really enjoyed making. I started with the sketch from Cutie Sunday and incorporated the Basic Grey and Daring Cardmaker which is "Scallops" for both! The papers are from Basic Greys "Urban Prairie" and have used my nestabilities for the scallops. The image was coloured with Prisma Pencils and blended with sansodor. few flowers, liquid pearls and a sentiment to finish. I really like the overall finish of this card and hope the photo is a but better, I was playing around with the settings!!!
