Lady In Red

Hi all today I have a card to show you that I have made for the following challenges:
For my card I have used a Saturated Fairy image from the Ragamuffin range, I have coloured her with Promarkers, I used the white dotty effect around the image after seeing the tutorial and so much wonderful inspiration from Nic aka Coops.
The papers are SU, I have used faux stitching around the image and the papers, I added a red heart doily, yellow ribbon and bow, punched red butterflies and green leaves.
The base card I have used my MS round the page punch, I had to watch a video tutorial to get the sizes right, I still have to practice with this.
The promarkers used, if I can remember correctly, are Ruby Red, Berry Red, Poppy Red, Ice Grey 3, Sandstone, Blush, Burnt Orange, Coral, Sunkissed Pink, Ivory and Pastel Beige.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you for visiting and leaving such wonderful comments, I read each and every one of them and they bring me so much joy.
I hope that you like my card, thank you for looking, see you in a bit. Hugs to all.

Beautiful, Lorraine! Such a pretty image, and the edging is a really special touch.

I must work harder with my punch around the page set - I think they've translated to millimetres inaccurately, and I always get a bit extra left over!

Lorraine, what a gorgeous card you have made. She's certainly a pretty image isn't she? I keep humming Lady in Red by Chris de Burgh. I loved that song and one of his "Missing You" was the first song played in the evening for the bride and groom to dance to at our wedding (as in the early years we were together we worked apart for most of the week). take care. Hope Mummy is coming along well. Kym xxx

Hi Lorraine,

Well in the words of an old tv advert 'I like (w)red' so of course I just love your card!

Your highlighting gives it an almost glassine effect! Its great!
