ZING {ABM Challenge 12}

{Guest DT Project for Art by Miran's Challenge 12}
  
Art by Miran is launching their 12th challenge today. All their challenges are always ANYTHING GOES as long as your project has a hand coloured image. So hop over here to have a look at their 12th challenge.

Also visit Mi Ran's Showcase blog {Art by Miran} here, for some more inspiration.

I have used this cute PUNKIE PATTIE created by the talented Mi Ran.  Do yourself a favour and hop over to Mi Ran's Etsy shop and check out her awesome digi creations, here. You can purchase PUNKY PATTIE  here.

The image has been coloured with Derwent H2O water colour pencils. The bling and design papers are from my stash.  The sentiment is from Paulette {Create with TLC}.  The embellishments have been created with flower en circle punches. The design papers are amongst other from FabScraps.  The flourishes have been stamped with Chiswick acrylic stamps.

    14. How cute Punky Pattie is! She is showcasing her dimples, right? hehe - wonderful card with great use of colors against the black and white! Desire, you always manage to wow me with your choice of elements and combination of embellishments with your cards. This time, the sentiment is fabulous, and all those flourishes are perfect with your statement! They are even more precious because you hand cut each one - such a wonderfully creative way of "zinging" the recipient. And I like the sequin in the flower! great card! hugs, de
