Use a Digital Image for Back to Basics and Beyond Challenge

Hello Everyone, I hope all is well with you and you are enjoying life.

I'm here with another DT card for Back to Basics and Beyond Challenge no.9 and it's to use a digital image.  I've chosen this beautiful image from Aurora Wings called Heartstrings;
This beautiful lady has been coloured with various coloured pencils, although mainly Prisma Colours. Matted on to black card and then I found some papers from Papermainia that was out a few years ago that was part of a set called Oriental Treasures. I then matted it on to a SU card that suited the colours I'd used. A little bit of sparkle from WOS and some sequins.

We would love you to join the challenge and you can find it here.

Please have a look at the Challenge Blog where there is lots of fabulous inspiration from my DT teamies.

  6. A very elegant lady, and you have coloured her beautifully Kate. I have never used digital stamps our printer doesn’t like anything other than thin copy paper, anything else and it jams up. Xx

  19. She is beautiful and so is your card. I remember when Oriental was all the rage years ago in stamping, and have a drawer full of beautiful stamps, have to look them over, you have inspired me.
