I have been happily crafting again and this time with this gorgeous girl called PEACEFUL THOUGHTS created by the talented Mi Ran. She really is so pretty and a natural beauty. Do yourself a favour and hop over to Mi Ran's Etsy shop and check out her awesome digi creations, here. You can purchase PEACEFUL THOUGHTS here and here which is available in digi and rubber stamp format at Treasured Times Stamps.
The folded embellishments have been created with circle and flower punches. She has been coloured with H2O water colour pencils and I have used a blender pencil. I must say the blender pencil really helps soften and blend the pencil strokes. The sky and ground has been coloured with dry chalks. The sentiment is from Paulette {Create with TLC}. The design papers and brads are from my stash.

ReplyDeleteIt's just beautiful with your lovely image, handmade embellishments, and wonderful papers. Wonderful design.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card (with the stitching around the sky line) and a beautiful sentiment. I always look around your entire card at all the colors, images and embellishments, Desire, and then I look for the sentiment. This is precious. Love the little flower hanging over the sentiment, and the sweetness in Mi Ran's image. The scalloped flower centers are fabulous! hugs, de
