Elisabeth Bell's World February / March Challenge

Hi

It's time for another challenge over at Elisabeth Bell's World.  This month the theme is Stitches and Swirls.

Here's my card:


The stamp I've used is called Musing Melinda.  I coloured Melinda using my Copic Markers and added some Glamour Dust to her wings.  Here's a close up:


I cut the cloud using my Silhouette and used papers and ribbon from my stash.  I used a black fine liner pen to draw my faux stitching and the swirls are cut using a Sizzix die.


There's always fabulous prizes on offer for the winner of our challenge and you have plenty of time to enter too, using any Elisabeth Bell image.  Make sure you hop on over to the Elisabeth Bell's World Challenge Blog to see what the rest of our fabulous Design Team have created.
