A PRETTY LITTLE BELLY DANCER

Now my friends that know me  will know of my love for bellydancing, and creating the costumes.  That's where my 'signature' of sewing beads and sequins onto my cards comes from. 

 I LOVE sewing stuff onto my cards, and often when you see flowers and bows, you can bet that they were sewn on.  Also, when you see a popped up or 3D layer, that probably also has beads used as ''spacers" instead of foam tape.

The image featured on my card is called Arabian Spell from The Paper Shelter, available here

I coloured the image using Copics and a white gel pen

I sewed lots of sequins and beads onto the card:

The perfectly co-ordinated background is the one that comes with the image (it a used as the inspiration for my colour palette) and once printed it onto CS, I sprayed it with a clear lacquer to give it a semi gloss, slightly sparkly finish.

The sentiment inside the card is

I am entering this call into the DT call for the Paper Shelter - I would love to be on their Design Team!

Thanks for visiting me today.
