Hi today my card features a Digital Image from Karen's Doodles I am not sure if these are still available I think it closed quite awhile ago but this image is perfect for Easter/Spring I have coloured the image with Spectrum Noir markers I used a Crafters Companion Embossing/Die Cut folder that cuts the centre aperture out so I fussy cut the doggy and placed him in and he fitted perfectly I then added some die cut flowers and a stamped sentiment, I treated myself to some wax and seal that I fixed to the pink organza bow at the top I then added some Nuvo pearl drops in blue.
When I was in my teens I was employed as a Post Office clerk and one of the many tasks was to use red sealing wax and seal for registered parcels and packages so this technique brought back some very old memories.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Many thanks to all my visitors who have left me such wonderful comments they really do mean so much to me and for you to keep coming back gives me such joy.

This card with that sweet image is beyond cute and I love how you used the sealing wax on the bow. It's a perfect compliment to those pretty butterflies and flowers.
he's such a cute image and looks so happy with his enormous, colourful egg, a pretty design with so much lovely dimension, the sealing wax is a great way to attach the bow.
