If you came here from Lynne's blog, you're on right track - if don't: start over at Michelle's blog!!
Today we're having a Aloha DT Blog Hop for the DT girls at Michelle Perkett Studio. They have given us so much inspiration and shared so many beautiful creations for the last 6 months, but unfortunately they are finishing their DT membership today :(
Aloha means hello, goodbye and thank you, and with this I would like to give a huge thank you to the talented DT girls !!
I've made a card using the fantastic Leilani digi from Michelle Perkett Studio - thanks a bunch for sharing her with us, Michelle!
I wasn't sure if I was allowed to combine this card with a challenge, but now I know that I can - so I'm entering this week's open challenge at Flutter By Wednesdays ;)
Image: Michelle Perkett Studio Leilani
Coloring: Watercolorpencils
Papers: Cardstock from Ursus, DP's from Nille
Others: Altered carton from a pearlpin box. Spellbinders dies. Grey granitepaint blended with sandcolored acrylicpaint for the beach. Butterfly punch from Martha Stewart. Transparent paper. Homemade roses. Leafes and halfpearls from Kort og Godt, Stickles Copper, Turquoise and Crystal from Ranger. Glimmer Mist Sweet Pea from Tattered Angels. Sun sticker. Seashell and starfish decobuttons from Dress It Up. All edges are sewed on my sewing machine.
Leilani on the beach ;)
Martha Stewart butterfly punched out of overhead/transparent paper and edged with Stickles
My homemade roses - with a touch of glitter off course! (I looove glitter!!)
These flowers are PERFECT to make if you're collecting every tiny bit of paper - like I do... *lol*
The inside - I've been using the same papers as on the front, and decorated with some butterflies. Since the papers are so decorative, I didn't add so much decor to the inside, just some halfpearls to soften the corners
Well, that was my creation - hope you liked it!! And I guess you're having a great bloghop. And once more: Thanks a BUNCH to the DT!!
Now, head over to Mari's blog!!
Lots of love,
OMG, Randi!! This is beautiful!! I just love how you colored Leilani and I love that she's on the beach with the sun and the sand! Your flowers and butterfly are gorgeous as well as the inside of your card, too!! Thank you so much for joining the MPS blog hop, Randi!!:)
