my homage to Doreens card

Hi
I am on a couple of DT's and I visit a lot of blogs  and work alongside so many talented papercrafters  I see so many wonderful  projects that I would love to have a go at creating ...I worked alongside one such crafter when I was on the DT at digi doodle shop a while ago and I am a avid follower of her blog ..her name is Doreen and her blog is called Doreens Dreams .Doreen created a black and white card that I just had to CASE and here is my homage to it....Doreens card was so elegant and beautiful.so Doreen I hope you don't mind me recreating it for myself...It's not exactly the same ...just my take on it..
 I am going to frame it and pop it on my craftroom wall
I used a rose script stamp from joy crafts,the other script stamp is from indigo blu.The embossing folder is from diesire. The ribbon gems and diamante buckle is from meiflower crafts. The banner is a la la lands die. The edge punch is from SU

little red swimming costume !!

Hi all
I have made this quick CAS card using free papers and stamps I had from a mag .The stamps are fab and are made by  Acid Drops and Whatnots...sweet aren't they.
the ribbon and gems are from Meiflower crafts and I coloured her with promarkersI used a radiant rectangle nestie for the frame around the image. ... It is not as fussy or as embellished  as my usual style but I like it.  I am going to give it a friend who is about to go on hols...with her new brand  Red swimming costume ,I think she will get a giggle from  the sentiment ...
