A little crafting just because...

A couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to be be given this beautiful Akice image to work with - I think you will agree she is stunning...
Check out what else is available at Chrissie' s etsy shop - CDeeDesigns
I am sure that you will find something that inspires you!

I decided to look at 'different' images of Alice rather than something that we are used to seeing and chose this picture as the inspiration - 


I love the expression in her face!


Here is my card... I have coloured the image with my pro-markers and then inked the edges, mounting the image on red card stock and distressing the edges...
I have added borders across a panel of DSP with a London background which I think sets of the image, I have also inked the edges of this and then distressed this...
I added a papermania flower to the edge of the image panel decorated with a brad (the lovely Tina sent me the flower!)


Here is a close up of the image
Beautiful to work with!

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:
wicked wedsnesday - based on a story
altered alice - bright garden flowers

I hope you like my card today and thank you for looking...
