Just for you........

Hello all!

      Back with a new challenge for the Pink Team over at Eclectic Ellapu and this week we're asking you for a creative project for a wedding, engagement or anniversary - basically it's a couples thing!
    For my card I used a digi from Make It Crafty called 'Geeky Love' and I will admit that I had coloured it well over 18 months ago!  I have a box of coloured images from when I first started colouring with Copics and I need to do something with them so have decided to start using them up :)  I just added a few more bits of shade and highlight here and there and decided to make the image the main focus of the card.  The background is simply a page from my trusty old recycled dictionary with some random stamping and I used photo corners to add some definition to the edges.

 
              The colouring does seem a bit flat but it was one of my early ones so I'll forgive myself ;)
 
                  I would like to enter this into the challenges at Bugaboo , Little Miss Muffet , Papertake Weekly and Through the Craftroom Door .

 
Thanks for popping by and enjoy the rest of your weekend :)

Hi Dawn, I've just been having a quick catch-up - The weeks just seem to fly by in the blink of an eye!
I love this card, particularly the stamping over the dictionary page, it looks fab!
And I wish my early colouring was as good as this - Great work!

I don't think the coloring is at all flat. They're a cute couple.

I love the design, the stamping on the dictionary page, and of course the use of the dictionary page.
