First Miss Anya card!

Well I couldn't wait to delve into my stamps and start playing with these yesterday so this is the card I made with them last night. This is what I call a just because card, I didn't follow any sketch or challenge and made it 'just because'!

I coloured Anya in with my distress inks {adding a little pink and sparkle for her eyeshadow!} and then cut her out and made a frame with my curved rectangle nesties. It wasn't until I'd finished this card that I realised I haven't used any DP! The CS is from DCWV and I have embossed the green CS with the swiss dots folder! Scalloped edge created with my SU scalloped border punch and holes added with my cropodile. The sentiment is a papermania freebie (with this edition of creativity) matted onto a scalloped circle cut with my nesties. Flower is from prima and the sparkly flower in the center was part of my blog candy that I won several months ago from Bev!

I also want to deidicate this card to Bev. If you are a regular to her blog you will have noticed that she creates a lot of pink and green cards, but has recently announced she is taking a break from this colour combo, so Bev, this one's for you!! :-)

Well I have thoroughly enjoyed playing with my Miss Anya's so far, I wonder when I'll get bored of them! NEVER!! Lol!

Hugs, Vicky x
