Debs, my teamie over on PFP, has use one of Christine's gorgeous digi images for her weekend workshop tutorial here and it is stunning so go and take a peek. It reminded me of these fab digis that I bought from Christine at The Sketching Stamper a fair while ago so thought I'd dig them out and isn't she a little beauty (and amazing value)! I met Chris a couple of months ago at a Craft Barn demo where she was showing her amazing colouring skills with Distress Inks, and she was so lovely as well as so talented!!! I got these fabulous papers - Utopia by Kaiser Krafts and so have left the card fairly uncluttered (for me!!) as I didn't want to hide them! The flowers are also a new purchase from Wild Orchid Crafts!! (Think the zip on my purse is broken now, I've opened it so much!! ) For the vertical background strip I used a deep edge MS punch but punched each side to get the flower effect. I used the sketch over on Cute Card Thursday for my layout so am entering it into that challenge. I'm also entering it in the current Dare U 2 Digi Stamp challenge whose theme is Blooms and Butterflies.
Well, DD3 has just got home as I was writing this, so off to have a chat with her. Catch up with you later!

Hi Julie and WOW your card is amazing and your colouring has brought the fairy to life! Although I blush at your wonderful words LOL, they go right back to you, you're so lovely and talented and it was such a great pleasure to meet you IRL, I really hope that happens again soon. Shame about the timing at the CB, I was doing a class when you arrived but may be next time? Have to get some of the papers you used, they're very pretty, someone elses zip will be broken I think :D. Enjoy your weekend and thanks for joining in on DU2DS. Chris x
