Ugh. Do you run into 'down' times? You know, where you don't even want to face all your stuff? I think about it, but then I just don't get in there and create very often. *sigh* Of course I've also run into problems with my signature here and on my email. They've both been upgraded recently - all the hard work I did to figure it out the first time has come to nothing! Grrrr. I think I've got this one fixed, but Yahoo is a whole 'nother story. What a time sucker! (Not to mention that I joined Pintrest - which is an *excellent* way to avoid getting my craft on!)
Anyhow. Enough grumbles.
I've had this digi from Crafts and Me printed for a few weeks. Actually, I have a bunch printed (why waste an entire sheet of paper on one image, right?) that are just waiting for some coloring. I'm pretty sure the ink is dry by now! :) I didn't really know where I was going on this, it just fell together at the end.
I colored the image with Copic markers and filled in the glass dome with Glossy Accents and some iridescent glitter. The green vines/leaves were cut from two different dies and fitted around the panel. The ribbon was actually dyed with reinkers some time ago - sorry I don't know exactly what they were anymore. I masked the area above the punched edge (Martha, of course) and stamped/embossed in clear. The final touch was some little pink gems.
All in all, it's fairly simple. I do like the finished card - especially since I usually struggle with pink!
Thanks for dropping by!

Hi Mari,
Oh yes, I can identify with low Mojo. Before long you will get a second wind and feel inspired and full of creative ideas. This card is really very pretty. The coloring you did with your Copics is wonderful! The hair is outstanding! I haven't played with Digi Stamps yet but this card makes me want to try.
