Orange you a good friend!

No, I haven't lost my spelling skills!  My card for Quixotic Inspirations today is using one of those gorgeous Kraftin' Kimmie Moonlight Whispers stamp set - Olivia Orange and the inside sentiment is from a Paper Makeup stamp set called Little Moments Mini Sentiments.

 

 

I wasn't sure if my fave kraft cardstock would work as the base card but I think it's ok with that DP.  I had a lot of fun colouring Olivia Orange in with my Copics - you can really get into the shading on these babies - you can't help but do a good job with those Moonlight Whispers!  

I highlighted the pearls in her hair and the dress trims with my Sakura clear Stardust pen - just right for those teeny tiny areas!  In the close up below you can also see where I've used my Viva Decor Pearl Pen in cream.  As much as I love my flat backed pearls and gems, sometimes you just need something smaller and Viva Decors allow you to control whatever size you want.  I gotta experiment more with them!

As I mentioned in last week's Quixotic Inspiration post, I'm going to be doing some tutorials - let me know in the comments section of this post if there is anything in particular you'd like to see!  I will choose one random winner to win a little surprise candy that I will mail anywhere in the world!
