Card Art with Copics: Elisabeth Bell's Laura's Yummy Pudding

This sweet little lady is about to introduce her own homemade version of her favorite dessert.  This image, designed by Elisabeth Bell for Elphine House Australia, is named Laura's Yummy Pudding.  You can find her at the Elphine House Australia online shop here

Here's my Copic-filled version:




I've used the beyond-the-edge technique to die cut the image with a Spellbinders Oval.  A Spellbinders Big Scalloped Oval makes a nice shaped frame.  I tried to preserve the little mousie tail but at the last possible second, the fragile tail fell off.  Luckily I have a spool of 20 gauge black cotton thread so I added a realistic-looking mouse tail in its place.

I've used my card scraps to make handmade daisies to coordinate with my project . . .





A patterned paper from Bo Bunny's Gabrielle Collection 6x6 pad is layered with some Bazzill cardstock.  I've used my Purple Cow deckle edge blade to give my edges a distressed, torn paper look.  An EK Success Paper Shapers Whale of a Punch corner was also deckled.  A few Creative Impressions white mini brads decorate one of the corners.  A single Spellbinders Floral Flourish adds a little movement to my card.  Here's the completed card front showing my version of Elphine House Australia's Laura's Yummy Pudding image by Elisabeth Bell:
