Hello Everyone! I hope you all had a Happy World Card Making day. I spent mine working on my very first contest entry.
The card I am sharing with you today is for the Guest Designer contest at My Favorite Things (MFT) using the MFTGUESTDT1012 sketch.
About a year ago I discovered the Pure Innnocence collection of My Favorite Things stamps at my LSS. The quality of the impression was important for my coloring and the price was great. I purchased my first stamp and used my Copics to color the girl with brown skin. I loved the result and how easy I could paper pierce or color them. My crafting girlfriends liked the way I changed her ethnicity with color. I was hooked from that day forward.
This is my entry for the MFT Guest Designer Contest.

Isn’t she so cute set among the leaves?
I love using this Die-Namic because it is the perfect size for all of my cards and the edges are so elegant. I paper pierced the little girl’s shirt and colored her and her pants with my Copics. I used dimensional adhesive to raise the wagon for a 3D effect. The Jillibean Soup label was just begging to be used with this stamp so I kindly obliged. Twine was my go to instead of ribbon to compliment the theme. I just had to use the blossom gem since it echoed the blossoms in her shirt and who could resist a little bling?

Brenda, I really love this card and that image is just way to cute. I have a couple of the images, but no new ones. I really need to check them out. You should enter a challenge a week just to get over your fear. Joynana
She looks great among the leaves! It’s so great to see a stamp colored as something different than generic-white-person, I hope you have more up your sleeve!
Lovely card Belinda I’ve got to ask, what are the colors of the markers you use to color your images! I want to get that down pack before I start buying markers willy nilly and dont apply them to the craft! Thanks Tamika
