Midnight Madness Challenge...

Today is Midnight Madness Challenge and our sponsor this week is D' Amour Allure. My image is "Doris Mae" and I love, love, love this Victorian woman! The sketch for this week's challenge is below! 


My image is on Whisper White cardstock, then colored with Copic Markers. My designer paper is Basic Grey "Bittersweet" Collection, and I used pearls, swirly pearls, ribbon trim and a fluffy organza bow to finish the card. Card size: 5 3/4 x 6 inches

  14. Wow, Darsie! You have really brought life to this image! I love the way you colored this, and the added pearl flourishes and sheer pink ribbon really dress up this card beautifully. An amazing job on the sketch!

You are going to have the best time with the MM girls. Enjoy it.
