Card Art with Copics: Elisabeth Bell's Little Lamb

This beautiful, barefoot little lady, peacefully cuddling her soft baby lamb is a digital image, named Little Lamb, designed by Elisabeth Bell.  You can get your own Little Lamb at Elisabeth Bell's Digital Gallery here.

This photo shows my Copic-filled image.


 
Surrounding my image, you'll find handmade chrysanthemums, created by layering Punch Bunch daisy punches.  I've painted a thin layer of Star Dust Stickles over each petal for added sparkle.  A few McGill pine branch punches lie over a Marianne Designs Creatables Branch Forest die cut.



Here's a closer view of my Stampin' Up! sentiment from an older Happy Harmony set as punched using a 1" circle punch.  I've also stamped and used detail black embossing powder to add a heat embossed super shiny layer to a flowery label from an old Stampin' Up! Designer Label Punch Box set then punched it using their matching label punch.  Bits of Prima's Say It In Crystals adds delicate bling and a smaller handmade chrysanthemum continues the flowery theme.  A self-curling ribbon adds a border and knotted accent.


I've layered Bazzill cardstock with old Top Line Creations Autumn/Thanksgiving plaid patterned paper to form my tent card.  I used a Martha Stewart Rings Combo Holiday Punch Around the Page corner and border punch to create my tent card's lacey edge.  Some faux stitching with a Zig Pure Brown marker adds a homemade touch.  A Spellbinder's Large Classic Oval and Scalloped Oval frames my image.  A QuicKutz scalloped corner die cut with a dot of bling accents two corners.

This photo shows the front of my lacey-edged tent card, displaying Elisabeth Bell's Little Lamb digital image . . .


More QuicKutz scalloped corners accompany Marianne Design Creatables Branch Forest with bits of blings on the inside . . .


Here's a side view of my card . . .
