Shine Bright Girls Card

So I just had to use the paper that inspired my last card and decided these paper pieced girls, from Unity’s Shine Bright Girls Kit, would be a perfect complement! And, because, if I’m going to paper piece one wardrobe, might as well make 4 with all the odds and ends. So, I stamped the girls onto 3 pieces of patterned paper from the Amy Design Christmas Wishes paper pack (goes well with the other paper that came from a Tattered Lace magazine pack). I also added a bland red dotted paper from another pack that I thought would blend in. I also stamped the girls onto white cardstock.

I cut up all the pieces of clothing and, yes, my hand is a little achy today. I colored the heads of all the girls with Prismacolor pencils. I then played with my paper dolls till I got the combination of outfits I wanted. I then glued everything on and colored in the gloves with red pen did a little more with pencils. I fussy cut the girls out leaving off the embellishments around the girls. I liked the clean look so I didn’t bother stamping the girls on the winter scene. 

I die cut both the plain red and patterned paper and used more paper to back the winter scenes. I stamped a freebie sentiment in red archival on white and backed with leftover patterned paper. I added a wood like gray background. I then used red/white twine to make a sign and bow and added a variety of embellishments. I attached all to silver cards and called them done! I think these will make nice friend cards. 

Thanks for stopping by!
