Anyone for Anya - Sweet as Sugar


For this week's challenge at Anyone for Anya, were asking you to use something girly and pretty on your card. Can't get too much easier than that and there's a fab stamp up for grabs, donated by Tracy at Dies to Die For.

When I think girly and pretty I think pink and sparkle and flowers so my card includes all of these things. It was rather labour intesive as the background is stamped and coloured as well as the main image. I've worked on Stampin Up blush blossom cardstock. Not a colour I usually like much but am very pleased with how this card turned out. Colouring is done with watercolour pencils blended with Zest It.
