For my card I used an oldie but goodie stamp ,, this one is called Tilda in Spring Rain. I coloured the image with Copics and decoupaged her brolly. The background paper is also from Magnolia and I made the side panel using a Hero Arts cloud stamp, stamped several times, cut out and used as masks to create the sky. I then used a Copic Air Brush and blue and green markers. I do love my airbrush !! The sentiment is from a Penny Black Clear set and I used some organza ribbon a Tim Holtz flower ,, which was part of a strip of Lavish Ribbon with a Prima rose in the center. I added a charm and a Martha Stewart medium punched butterfly with a few Kaiser Crafts pearls to finish Of course everything is glittered with Star Dust Stickles ,, I wish they sold that in LARGE bottles !! I also used a new Spellbinders Lattice Rectangle die and a Martha Stewart Doily Lace Edge border punch

Here are close ups and one taken at a jaunty angle to show the 3D effect,, sorry it's blurred ,, but as you all know I am useless with a camera !! :-)
