Magnolia Meets Basic Grey


Basic Grey's challenge this week is a sketch. As I started putting this card together, I was exactly with the sketch but turned sideways. I attached the striped paper to close together so it looks like it's just one piece. But it's two, really! And then I thought the image was cuter attached a little crooked. I think she looks cuter this way. All the paper is Basic Grey except the background.

I decided to put down the Prismas today and use my watercolor pencils. I'm much more comfortable with the watercolors. I used a paint brush with my VersaMark ink pad and embossing powder for her wings.

The Magnolia was a RAK from Jen at Pieces of Me.

Blessings,

You've been making lots of cute cards! And I noticed you used the Swiss Dots embossing folder, too! Very cute! I have been using the Prismacolor pencils for many years and I really love them- they're SO much better than regular colored pencils.
Have a terrific day!
