Flora-dorable


















 

For this card I made my own digi. I was inspired by some paper-dolls which my mum used to draw for me, when I was a kid. The red-headed doll is meant to be me, while the blonde doll is supposed to be the girl I'm a mentor for. Her birthday is coming up, so I made this card for her.

The flowers in the corners come from my garden. Basically, I picked some flowers and put them in my scanner. Instead of using dried flowers, I used scanned dried flowers. Lol. Don't ask me why (less messy maybe?). The other flowers come from the local craft store. I have painted them though - with nail polish (I paint almost everything except my nails with nail polish). 

When it comes to the papers, I purchased some of them at the local craft store Pysselmakaren, while I painted some (not with nail polish actually, but acrylic paint).

Why don't you save us? We are friendly.
