Who Is She?

Hello Bloggers,

I have just been looking for inspiration for a few cards, as Lizy and I are off to Jen's for a crafty weekend tomorrow....but the urge was too much and I ended up making a card rather than putting something together for tomorrow.

It's a little different for me - made the card a little grungy with distress inks but I really like it....




Whatcha think?  I have had the image stamped and coloured (with promarkers) for quite a while and only yesterday did I decide to do something with her....now, I thought she was a Greeting Farm stamp, but I can't seem to find her online anywhere - so who is she?!  Does anyone else have the same stamp and know where she's from? I really like her and would love some more girls similar.

Anyway, I used some Bazill cardstock for the base and the paper is by Chatterbox.  I am sure if they are still making paper or not, but I have this paper in my scrapbooking stash for such a long time, and the colours were perfect for this image.....OK I'll let you into a little secret.  The pink accents on the girl's outfit were actually cream, but when I found this paper, I recoloured them pink.....so the paper does match her now ;)

The ribbon, flower and gems were from my stash.  I have used Tea Dye distress ink for the grungy look.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

- Cupcake Craft Challenges - Born on a Winter's Day
and
- I (heart) Promarkers - Anything Goes

Thanks for looking! xxx
