Spring Fever Card - Aurora Wings Blog Hop


I am so happy to be a part of the new Aurora Wings Stella Design Team. Mitzi's digital stamps are so much fun to color and create with. I'm glad you have joined us for our "getting to know you" blog hop. 

1 - Julie
2 - Sara
3 - RoRa
5 - Wendy (you are here)


I would describe my design style as "sweet and simple". I use pencils and inexpensive markers to color my digital stamps. I love design paper and use every single scrap of a sheet. I like to play with color, patterns and designs. My favorite embellishments are buttons, pearls, gems and glitter. 

I used LittleTutu Bunny for this card. She is colored with pencils and markers. The card is layered and embellished with ink, tulle, loose glitter and a button. The sentiment is a freebie from Pixel Scrapper.

Thanks for stopping in to say "hi". Please hop on over to Marion's Blog to see her wonderful Aurora Wings creation.
