Nothing like waiting 'til the end of the month to do the Outlawz June Progressive Freebie Challenge with the gorgeous image provided by Sheepski Designs but it's been a busy month and to be honest, I couldn't decide how to color this beautiful girl, called My Fair Lady. If I could keep myself from checking out all of the other gorgeous entries, perhaps I could make a decision more quickly, but each day I'd have a new fave and the pressure mounted. Finally, I looked again at the Outlawz Festive Fridays themes, and Wedding Day caught my eye. But of course! Doesn't she make a beautiful bride? Besides, I also just got a gorgeous new die from Jeanine's Art that I thought would showcase her perfectly. She's colored with Copics, fussy cut and popped with foam and I carefully used a craft knife to make a slit under her hat to attach the sparkly tulle veil. Her single rose bouquet has a bow of sheer organdy ribbon. The die cut is mounted on an iridescent ecru base and I cut and embossed the center circle with the same shimmery paper and the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder. Finally I added pearls to each of the embossed flowers on the die and a delicate sticker sentiment.
I'm also adding this to the SheepSki FB Challenge 13, the SheepSki Girlz Rule Blog challenge #3, the DL.Art June Linky Challenge, Lil Patch of Crafty Friends #60 AG, C.R.A.F.T Add Ribbon and Sparkle, Double "D" Challenges Anything Wedding, Die Cuttin' Divas Wedding or Anniversary, TTRCD Week of June 27, {Pin}spirational #193 Wedding, If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #72 Wedding and Simon Says Wednesday AG.
