First I made the background (forgot to scan it before I added my collage elements). I love using the Tim Holtz inking tool for adding colors to white/cream cardstock. THis time I used most of the blue distress inks including broken china and then used pine needles to darken along the edges. Overstamped with a Magenta small floral vine and some tiny dots around the edges.
The image is from Paper Whimsy (love their images). Butterfly is from K & Co. Sentiment from an old hymnal. Added a pearl to her neckline, some tiny black gems to the butterfly and sentiment, Stickles turquoise glitter and some soft white ribbon. Mounted to a piece of black cardstock.
A few more collages are in the making; just a few finishing touches to add.
Have a good Sunday!
