I started with a base of River Rock (who else is thrilled SU are bringing this back!!!) and layered with white (pierced around the border) and some retired Ginger Blossom DSP. I then added two pieces of white satin ribbon for the cross panels. The image is from Sugar Nellie called Postbox and I've stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black on X-Press It Blending Card and coloured it with a lot of Copics. (Top: R20, R22, R27, YG00; Pants: B93, B95, B97; Hair: Y21, YR23, E35, Garden: YG11, YG63, YG67, V000, V12, V15, V17, Y11, Y15; Letterbox: C1, C3, R22, R27, E31, E35, E37) I cut the image with Label 1 Nestabilities and mounted on some River Rock and White (pierced again) and popped the whole panel up on foam tape. To finish I added some Kaisercraft Snow Pearls to the corners and a white satin bow topped with a Paper Trey Lemon Tart Button.

What a sweet image and card. I love your coloring, and you're right, the bow does add a lovely touch. Funny how some images are fussy sometimes. I have that happen too, and then when you least expect it...wa-la..it turns out beautifully..just as yours did this time. Thank you for playing with us at the MMSC this week!
