Bownita Bonita

Here's another bow crazy card. I found the digi girl here and the butterfly in a magazine. I painted the girl's skin with Promarker - Almond. I used Copics E35 for the eyes. Then I coloured the hair with coffee. The bows were painted with coffee, red crayon and a touch of glitter (stickles: cinnamon).  



















The backgrounds were painted with coffee and rooiboos tea. 
Finally I used my fun border paper punch - ribbon to create a bow border. 


I have submitted this card to the following challenges:
Bastel Traum: Vintage
Card and Scrap: Alt er lov 
Five simple things: Anything goes 
Seemacrafts: August butterflies
The Cupboard Trilogy: Monochrome 

Ps. Why don't you grab this coffee background? :) 

Ps. Check out this fun/interesting song.

    Thank you for joining us over on SeemaCrafts Challenge Blog for our new challenge 'August Butterflies'.

    What a really gorgeous and unusual make. I love the tones you have used on this card. The image is coloured wonderfully with those lovely pale colours and then you get the darker bows and the gorgeous butterfly. Looks like a collage and I love that.


    I hope you will join us for more of our challenges, which run monthly. Great prizes up for grabs from the wonderful LEJ Designs who are our sponsors this month.
