Since I was making four cards for a fundraiser, I decided that I didn’t want all four to be birthday cards. I’ve had this stamp from Stamping Bella for some time but had never used it. I have always loved it, but just couldn’t find the “right” reason to color her up.
I used my Copics to color her. I used a white gel pen to her pearl necklace and bracelet. I have listed the colors I choose at the bottom of my post.
I had some border dies from My Favorite Things that I had never used. I decided to make this card a little different than my “normal” card by using the border dies to shape the image and sentiment. I like how it turned out and will probably do this again.
After adding some patterned paper and some pink paper to my card, I added the image. To finish my card, I added some Sweet Lilac Nuvo Drops…my go to embellishment. LOL!
I did repeat the papers on the inside but left off any sentiment so that the person could write their own message.
Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Crafting!

Oh my gosh, all I saw was the gorgeous lady you brought to life and immediately thought Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Then I saw your quote and post title. Great job conveying the message through your coloring skill. Love love love this card.

Awe thanks! I thought of the same movie when I first saw the image too! Then when I saw the sentiment that came with it, it just hopped into my cart. I had no choice but to purchase it! 😂
