Rose Red for mum

The lovely Krista was kind enough to do another free pre-release for her followers and as ever Rose Red is beautiful. Just the think I needed for a card for my mum.

I used another wonderful Graphicat Sketch- I love using their sketches as they help make me more creative and find my mojo!

I made the papers and elements using Craft Artist. The edges of the card are inked with spun sugar distress ink.

The flowers are from wild orchid crafts. A few of the flowers are my first attempt at colouring white flowers with glimmer mists and inks to match the cards. Had to include some daffodils as mum loves them.

I used Pro and Flexmarkers to colour Rose Red. I then highlighted some areas with pearlescent ink so  of the dress and hair so it shimmers when it catches the light. The picture below gives some idea of how that looks in real life in the right light.

I made a matching inside.

 and it also needed a box.
