A Card for my Auntie

Good Afternoon ladies how are you today. It has been a lovely sunny day here in the Fens today - shame we don't have a garden would have been nice to have spent more time outside today :( been painting the house instead and fitting a new outside light woohoo. 
I made this card for my Auntie Marvina who live in Scotland, it is her birthday on Tuesday so I am sending this to her first class tomorrow.
I have used a sketch today from this weeks Friday Sketchers challenge which can be found Here


This is what I did with the sketch 



The papers are from the 'My minds eye - wild asparagus' set I just bought these and love them to bits - brilliant price too - I bought them at the glitter pot for £9.99 for 36 sheets of 12x12.

The image was sent to me in an image swap a long while ago, it is a Diana Duda one I think - I am going to have to find out because I love it. I coloured the image with copic markers. The sentiment is stamped from the Woodware sentiments set. The pearls at the bottom are from the pound shop and are part of a set of 6 different types and the ribbon is from my stash.

I am entering this card in to the following challenges;

Friday Sketchers - Sketch
Crafty Angels - My favorite things - I used my Copics of course
Sophisticat challenges - Distressing - I have distressed the edge of my papers
Creative Card Crew - Birthday
My time to craft - Pearls

The Copic Colours I have used are;
Bubbles - B97, B95
Stem - YG63, YG67
Rose - R59, R46, R37
Top - B00, B02, R22, R35
Skin - E00, E21
Hair - E29, E35, E37
Background - R00
