So Gorjuss

Good Morning my friends.  I hope you are having a very good day enjoying the snow, spring or crafting!  I finally colored up a Gorjuss image I have had for quite some time and here she is:


She is colored in Distressed Inks and then I used Crackle accents around her because I knew it would run the inks.  The edges are inked and distressed.  My paper is Engraver from Prima, I have so many plans for this paper!  I used Life Style Crafts Nesting frames for the shaped background. I have used a Marianne die for the Eifel tower on the right and Tim Holtz die for the butterflies on the left.


I put a piece of my MIL lace she gave me on after I knotted it and then attached Tim Holtz ideology rings and paper hearts to burlap that I borrowed off another older project.  At the bottom is a paper rose,  with a piece of lace under it. I adorned the card with a few pearls and crystal pieces.  
She is a intriguing image


I would like to enter the following challenges

Thank you for visiting my blog today, I really appreciate you taking the time!
