"Biker Girl"

On Sunday last weekend I was sent a email by Dr. Digi with this "Biker Girl" image above and it reminded me so much of a very dear friend of mine, and as this week is a very difficult one for her and I felt if I could make her smile it was worth buying it and giving it a go.

And this was the photo that inspired me and as the friend in question is almost 86 I thought that the image was appropriate so I hope you like the result.

Latest news, she was thrilled by it, as its her Wedding Anniversary on the 31st and she lost her hubby nearly 2 years ago and is still very weepy over it and lonely, but this made her smile so Im so pleased that I gave her something else to think about at such a difficult time.

Challenge #187 - "All Wrapped Up" - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Fellow Crafters, well over on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot we are trying to get "All Wrapped Up" against this cold weather, and Im sure you will agree with me that its been rather cold and Im so looking forward to the Spring and Summer and being able to enjoy going out.
Anyway as usual our sponsors are Veronica and Pedro of The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website.

But as always this comes with the rule is that you must have used one of their products on your card and this could be either a image, paper or printable, but even if you dont they will still give you three images of your own choice. I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter website and see for yourself what fabulous value their images are as well as being stunning, you will find them here.
And now for my Card and I have used this gorgeous image for it.

She is called "Snow Angel" and you will find her here, I have printed her onto white card then used copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used a large rectangle die from Nestabilities to cut her out and the Wild Rose Snowflake Die for the mount. The sentiment is also from my stash and I then mounted his onto another of the Wild Rose dies.
The main card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount of blue card and the papers are from Sweetshoppe Design Digi Papers and this set is called "Winter Princess" and I have used three papers the first is a snow scene and the second is blue snowflakes and the third a flowers design.
I then placed my mounted image in the middle towards the top and the sentiment below on the right hand side, to finish of I have used two punched out snowflakes and put them in the bottom left hand corner and in the center are two pearls.
