FBW #192 - Open Challenge w/ SCACD

Hello everyone!


Today we have a brand new challenge at Flutterby Wednesday.  It's an open challenge and we have a terrific sponsor, SCACD (Susana's Custom Art and Card Design).  For all the details on what you will be in the running for and links to the DT blogs, head on over to the Flutterby Wednesday blog.  Each of the DT received an amazing stamp from Danni plus a card showcasing their stamp.  I don't think any of us know what the others received so it will be a real treat for everyone, including me, to see what my fellow DT buds create.  I decided to use the beautiful card Danni sent me as my inspiration. 

If the shoe fits card created by Danni Bindel
Isn't this beautiful?  I think so.  The colors are terrific and her coloring is gorgeous.  I always love her layouts and the papers she uses.  I'm so stoked I have a Danni original!!  This image is called, "If the shoe fits," illustrated by Victoria Case for SCACD.  Love the fairy's expression when the perfect shoe is found.  I went for a similar layout and changed up a few things because I made some boo-boos.  But it's always nice when that happens because then you create something that might turn out better than the original.


Here's my take on Danni's card.  I thought her being a fairy she'd enjoy and maybe rock pink hair.  I was right.  (lol)  I went with a pink and black color scheme.  As much as I loved the details on her skirt, I went the lazy way and colored it all black.  The b&w dp is from Making Memories and the pink is from Recollections and they were all matted with black cs (Recollections)


The fun part was trying to color the shell/chair.  I wanted to add a pearl like tone to it so after coloring it in I used some pearl pen and my finger to spread it around.  IRL you can see a pearly sheen, but here not so much.  I did add some sparkle to her shoes and wings.  The sentiment was handwritten.  I guess it's every woman's dream to have that perfect fit.  Right ladies?! :)


Well I hope you all get a chance to play, and remember to include a fairy, butterfly or angel to your card to be in the running for the prize then directly link up with us at the Flutterby Wednesday blog.  Mahalo for stopping by today, have a great 1/2 way to Friday day and Happy Leap Year!

Hugs,
Leanne
