Angellica

I don’t make new year resolutions as a rule but this year decided to make just the one … to try and work through the mountain of uninked rubber.  Now I don’t know how long it will last before I fall off the wagon (probably the first rush magazine commission or new release lol) but I am going to try and stick to it …. when I remember!  So here’s one off the pile – Sugar Nellie’s Angellica

The gorgeous, glittery papers are First Edition Isabelle. Oh my the colours in this pad are sublime!  Thank goodness there is 6 sheets of each pattern else I would not be able to use it ha ha.

She has been coloured with Copics:

Skin: E11, E00, E000, E0000, R30
Hair: E25, E23, E50 and dark umber pencil (I love this colour combo for brown hair!)
Pinks: R83, R81, RV00, RV000, RV0000 and Rose Pale pencil (with a very very light touch of black for depth)
Greens: YG63, YG61, G20 and Pale Sage pencil again with a very light touch of black
Bunny: C3, C1, C0, C00, R30 and black pencil

Lots of Glamour Dust was added to her petticoat, wings, butterflies and flowers for a bit of the old bling.  The crown pins, seam binding, 30mm wild rose, 25mm rose, 20mm rose, 15mm rose and sweetheart blossoms are all from Wild Orchid Crafts.

And a sneaky shot at the inside, decorated to compliment the front.

    Gorgeous card & I think we all need to consider using what we have before buying more - I'm ashamed to say I have loads of un-inked stamps too! Jx

    Lovely card and such a wonderful image. I love the colours and flowers - so delicate.

    I think most of us have rubber (or digis) that has never been used so I am with you on that one :).

    Hi Bev, like you and many of your followers, I too have hundreds of stamps that probably have never seen ink. Now I am starting my crafting again, I am going to follow your lead and dig out the ones I haven't used before and start some totally new designs. Thank you for the idea, it will be good for me and my stamps. LOL..
    Such a pretty card today, and what a cute image you chose to use.
