I needed to make a special card for a friend to let her know I am thinking of her and her family. I have used a Sweet Pea Stamps image by Rachel Anderson called "Angelic". She is available as a digital stamp, a single rubber stamp and as part of a multi-image plate (Sheet 1, Plate 95 - Angelic comes on the multi-image plate with Lily of the Valley, Sweet Dreams and Snow Fae).
Due to the reason for sending the card I have kept my colour scheme very pale and used my Graph'it pens to colour and added highlights with my clear Wink of Stella pen.
The backing papers I have used are from Summertime Designs. The recipient loves vintage style cards so I have tried to keep to what she likes. I have finished the card off with some ribbon, Tim Holtz die-cut flowers, card candi, ribbon bow and a Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
