Crafty Secrets Girlfriends Challenge

This week our design team was given a challenge by our wonderful and extremely talented team leader, Vicki Chrisman. Our challenge was to make a project/card using images from the "Girlfriends" Images & Journal Notes. What a fun challenge!! Here is the card that I made using the Crafty Secrets "Girlfriends" Images & Journal Notes.I love this image with just a hint of color. I thought it would go perfectly with the flower basket lady from the Crafty Secrets NEW Glamour Girls stamp set. On the image of the ladies I slightly distressed the edges and inked them with Ranger Distress Ink, Frayed Burlap. Then I added just a tiny bit of diamond stickles on the flowers. For the flower basket lady I stamped the image on Cryogen White CS using Ranger Adirondack Pitch Black Ink and then colored the image with Copic markers. I stamped the image twice, colored and cut out the bow and layered on top of the first image. The background paper is from the Crafty Secrets Classic Paper Pad. I used Ranger Distress Ink, Milled Lavender on the edges and stamped a couple of flourished corner elements in two of the corners and then I lightly went around the design on the paper with waterfall stickles. To finish the card I stamped the sentiment and added some floral stickers from the Heartwarming Vintage Sticker, Best Wishes sticker sheet, added some blue ribbon and purple brads.

  7. Way to go Heidi. I really like how your cards have this soft and warm feeling to them. And how you sparkle them up with glitter or stickles. Great job adding the stamped flower basket lady image and you colored it to perfection.

    Keep them coming.
