I decided to continue my series of Glitterati cards by using some of the paper from the pack that reminds me of tie-dyed material. It is just so bright and happy!
Although the image (Leafy Tree E1266) is nice and large and would be easy to use with Copic markers, I decided to stamp it directly onto the patterned paper and then color it with Prismacolor pencils. Prismacolors are nice and opaque so that they show up really well even when you are coloring over a patterned paper.
Next, I ran some Sweet Corn cardstock through my Cuttlebug to add some texture and layered my pieces onto some Holly Berry paper. Finally, I stamped my saying (Happy Spring B849), placed everything onto a Key Lime notecard, and added some berry pearls.
Here is a close-up of the tree so you can see how the Prismacolors look over patterned paper as well as how the pearls add a nice dimensional element to the card:
Gorgeous card! Ok I love how you say "some berry pearls"....looks like the whole card of pearls. But it does make the card!
