Oh What Joy!


I bought a couple of Sugar Nelli digital stamps the other day and the image on this card is called Joy and she is just adorable, I did however have some doubts about colouring her as shading is already applied to the images and I always prefer to add my own shading and light source.  Once I started to colour I realised there was plenty of scope to enhance the shading etc especially on this image.  I've used Promarkers to colour the image, the papers are from the collection Gossamer, I've embossed the oval background and also added new  laser cuts from the Papermania Bird Song pack, hearts and ribbon complete the card.  I've used the sketch from this weeks challenge over at the Sugar Bowl and will enter this card into their challenge

Hope you like and thank you for stopping by
