Polkadoodles new challenge - Week 10

Happy Friday crafty friends.  I hope you've had a good week where you are.  Weather has been abysmal here so dull and wet and soggy, yuk!! We've had a busy week this week and the days just whoosh by it's frightening but the upside (there's always an upside) it just means that Polkadoodles challenge day is here before you know it and you're on the cusp of the weekend so all good in my book.

So, as it's Friday a new challenge has gone live over at Polkadoodles Crafting.  As always it's an 'anything goes' challenge but the DT have the theme of 'flowers' to work to and as per usual my teamies makes are just gorgeous.  There is so much inspiration to be had and we'd love you to pop over and join in so we can all see your beautiful makes.

Right, so what did I make for my little contribution to the Polkadoodles love … a card with the beautiful image 'Eden Blossoms'.  She's been coloured with copics to compliment the pretty Eden Blossoms 'Paper Heaven 2' papers which I printed off on to ultimate graphic paper and matted on to kraft card stock.

Image:  Polkadoodles 'Eden Blossoms' from the Eden collection

Medium:  copics

Papers:  Eden Blossoms 'Paper Heaven 2' printed on Ultimate Graphic Paper

Dies:  Polkadoodles 'Elegant Nest' set of 3 craft dies

flowers and pearls from stash

My usual close up of the image.  I added a few little liquid pearl dots to the centres of the flowers in her hair.  Do you know that when using liquid pearls once you've squeezed out your pearl dots if they're not all rounded like a pearl if you just tap underneath gently it rounds them off lovely.  I read this somewhere years ago and I always do it as it works a treat.  I think this card may just end up as my mum's Mother's day card she just love's these colours so perfect really.

Okay, so that's all from me this morning.  I have a not so good day at work today, it's going to be a long hard day.
