Wishes Do Come True



Late post today! I finished this card up earlier, but I didn't have time to post it because I had to go pick my hubby up from the airport. He had a smooth flight and we made it home right before it started pouring - Yea! I followed this sketch that I found over on Jen's blog. Such a unique and fun layout to work with. I stamped my main image out twice on vanilla cardstock. She is colored in with Copics and her dress is paper pieced on. I glued the first image down onto my grey Nestie piece. For the 2nd image, I cut her out again, removing her feet and wings so that I could pop her up on top of the 1st image with dimensionals. It gave it a great 3d effect! I went over her wings and the brown stripes on her socks with Candle Light Shimmerz. See that beautiful crocheted flower? My mom made it!!!!!! She made me a handful of several different shapes and sizes - I LOVE them! Hope y'all have had a wonderful Monday so far. DWTS tonight - woohoo. I think it's Jive and Tango week!

Wish she lived near by so she could show me what I'm doing wrong...the back part of my flowers are turned the other way?! lol Watched Flash Forward, I think Charlie might be a BAD guy in this!?!
