Scrappy Sweet Creations: Of Corsets Your Birthday!

Happy Monday!
Want to say welcome to my new followers! So honored to have you here :)

We have a new challenge starting today at Digi Makeover and it's String/Ribbon/Twine! I love using these on my cards. They always seem to provide that perfect finishing touch to everything.

I decided to do a little bit of detailing with the ribbon for my card. It was pretty fun to try something different. I used the Oo La La set from Paper Makeup and colored in my image with my ShinHan markers. Then ruffled some ribbon around the edges and made up a few teeny tiny bows. The last little bit I added to the corset was some thread for the lacing up the middle.

Added all my layers together, which was a bit hard. I couldn't seem to get any good coordinating papers together...but since I love green and purple together, I kept searching to find a combo that would work. I used one of the sentiments from the set and added on a few purple gems for some fun bling, and that was it!

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
    A Gem of a Challenge #119-Favorite Color Combo
    Crafting with Dragonflies #26-Celebration
    Creative Fingers #36-Anything Goes/Girly
    SugarPea Designs Sketch #3
    Totally Gorjuss #236-Lace

I hope you will join us this week!
Thanks for stopping by!! <3
