So coloring with Copics is cathartically relaxing right? I think I am in love. (As I typed those sentences my two girls and my nephew {all under age 3} each let out screams rising in pitch and intensity to an absurdly ear-shattering ring. Ahhhhhhh! 600 toys and they always want the same one, ya know? At least I can look at my card and remember that I actually get some relaxing moments.)

The dress form image is a digi-stamp from Priscilla Styles' site, Crafters Digital Art Center. Isn't she lovely! I just found out that my printer ink is compatible with Copics, YAY!! I used the wonderful sketch from Priscilla Styles over at the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. You can see that I rotated the sketch a bit.
The colored dress forms are accented with Perfect pearls. It's hard to see here, but the green of the last dress is also pearlized. I cut out some cute crowns to top each of the dress forms. I used part of a gold doily for the circle element. I was afraid of making a big ol' mess, but I decided to get brave and distress with Black Soot. Luckily a mess was avoided, and I do like the result. Flowers with glitter and pearls and clear pebble centers, and voila!
I gave the inside of the card a fun twist by putting the center rectangle on a flower hinge and hiding space to write behind it.

Enjoy! Happy Monday y'all!
