It's that time, again! Time for another Marvelous Monday at Shelly's Images! Today's featured image is Swan Love. Swan Love is on sale, today only, in in the Shelly's Images store While you're there, check out her other fabulous images, too! There are so many wonderful images!
I've used today's Featured image, Swan Love, colored with Promarkers. This image is so beautiful and elegant. I had trouble deciding if I wanted to go with a Wedding card, or an anniversary card, for this image. It is perfect for both! I ended up going with a wedding card, in mind, but you could use this card for anniversary, as well. I used some of my new supplies for this card. These two yummy metallic specialty cardstocks were perfect for this image, and for achieving the elegant look I was going for. I bought these just last week and am so glad I did! The gold ribbon with metallic threads is from Michael's, but its been in my stash since Christmas of 2009 LOL. The sentiment is a digi sentiment, purchased from Sentiments 4 You. I used the oval and scalloped oval punch from Stampin Up. The sentiment is mounted using foam mounting tape, for dimension. I used my trusty clearstar gelly roll pen, to add glitter and sparkle to the image. My card fits the sketches at Paper Pretties, at Card Positioning Systems and at Totally Gorjuss.
