Carnival


Carnival is the theme for this bi-weekly challenge from Time4Scrap.  We have two sponsors, Sassy Studio Design and Aurora Wings.  My digi is by Sassy Studio and is Classic Marie Antoinette.  She just looked like she was going to a masquerade ball to me.  

Normally, I color my images with Copic markers and then find paper to coordinate.  I happened to be going through my scraps and discovered this masquerade masks paper and decided this would be perfect.  And her ball gown colors were instantly decided upon.  I didn't really add many embellishments because I though her dress spoke volumes :-).  




The bow at the top was created with a WR Memory Keepers envelope punch board (thanks Brenda for the idea).  You can find the You Tube tutorial here.

Now it's your turn.  You've got two weeks to upload your projects to Time4Scrap.  Don't forget to check out what the rest of the team has created (they've used some really cute images).
