Susan's Challenge #9 Showcase

Good morning everyone!! Our current challenge at The East Wind is Challenge #9 - Bling. Here is what I've done:







For this card I used Christmas Tree with Sexy Girl from The East Wind. I wanted to do another Christmas card. I colored her with my Copic Markers. I decoupaged her in front of the gifts. I added glitter for the tinsel around the tree, a little bit of glitter for the lights on the tree the flower on her headband, and a little bit of yellow glitter on the star. I used quite a few different dies on this card. Some swirls from Cheery Lynn and the rest are Spellbinders. I added inking around the edges of all of the papers and then the stitching, gems for the berries and the white dew drops. The sentiments on the front and inside are from Paper Smooches. The papers are all Echo Park This & That.

Crafting Vicky - Wedded bliss - Asian mon amour Korean

Hello everyone! It's Monday!!!  Oh well... but here in Québec tomorrow is a holiday!  So a little respite to be able to play

But now I'm here to share with you the card that I did for the new FB challenge of The East Wind.  For this challenge it's Wedded bliss!  I really hope you are part of the FB group and will play in the newest challenge!!!

For my card I decided to use the fabulous image Asian mon amour Korean Hanbok.  I really love how the trees are intertwined... I just thought it was the perfect sign for love!
The paper for this card is from Day Dream - 1st edition.  I used my nesting frame 6 from Quickutz.  I added a little ribbon with some gold pearl embellishment on it and another ribbon and bow that I made.

Here's a closer look at the fab digi that I colored with my copics.  
Isn't she just fabulous?! You really should check out the new digis!!!

Have a great crafting day!!!  

Hugs
