Card Art with Copics: Elisabeth Bell's Li'l Lilian

This lovely little lady caters to her passion for painting as she begins another fabulous masterpiece.  She has been designed by Elisabeth Bell and her name is Li'l Lilian.  You can find her at the Elisabeth Bell Digital Gallery (here).

This photo shows a closer view of my Copic-filled image . . .



I've used  Li'l Lilian on a side open card with layers of clock and striped patterned papers from Bo Bunny's Time Piece Collection and Bazzill Kraft and burgundy cardstock.  A Home Pro copper metal corner adorns one corner of my image while a few black brads lie at two opposite corners of my card.  A swirl of Zva self-adhesive pearls accents the QuicKutz brush and palette die cuts.  A bit of Glossy Accents over the image's palette paint puddles and paint puddles on the die cut palette give a little wet-looking dimension.  A Marianne Design Creatables Branch Garden provides a natural border lined with a Recollections Wild Rose and some smaller roses.
Here's a photo of my completed card front showing my use of Elisabeth Bell's Li'l Lilian digi image . . .
