Getting Girly with Digital Tuesday Challenge

Happy Tuesday! Just wanted to share my DT card for this week's Digital Tuesday Challenge. We're getting Girly! How fun is that? I think very feminine cards are among the most fun and easiest to make. It's a chance to go all out with our favorite embellishments and all the fancy cuts and punches.

I decided to go Parisian with my design and used this lovely Pure Innocence image from Heather Ellis Digi-Stamp Characters. The colors are Purely Pomegranite and Black and the DP is from Making Memories. The image is colored with Copics and stardust stickles are added to the bathwater to give it real dimension and shimmer. After cutting the image with my nesties, I lightly sponged the background with pale pink ink before removing the frame. Such a cool technique and I tend to forget about it when I'm designing but it adds a lot.

The card uses a standard size A2 front with a 5 1/2 square back panel. The inside is white for a message with a black blorder made with an EK Success punch and a row of tiny pearls.

For some reason, I had the hardest time photographing this card. PP is HARD to photograph, it either looks red or orange. The stickles wouldn't really show and then I couldn't get a clean look showing both the front and back panels. Despite the poor photo, I hope you enjoy the post and take the time to play along in our Digital Tuesday Challenge. Make a girly card using a digital image. You can combine challenges but your card must be a new creation. Enter at Digital Tuesday Challenge and you could win a $10 prize from this week's sponsor DigiSparkle.
