Simply Sassy Spotlight

When Maria who runs the Simply Sassy blog asked me if I would like to be in the 'Spotlight' I could hardly refuse, now could I? Maria knows very well that I absolutely adore the Sassy range of stamps and I eagerly await each new release. I have boxes full of other stamps but these little girlie's keep shouting out to me to ink them up!
I think the Sassy stamps are after rubber world domination and they'll get my vote -I just loves them!
So, this is the card I sent to Maria:


This little sweetie is called Bella Bunting and available to buy HERE, she been coloured as usual with DI's.
Recently I've made quite a few cards with a green/blue/brown colour scheme so I thought it was about time I tried something a little brighter. I'm not really used to using such brightly coloured papers but hey a change is good.
The papers are Prima Annalee and I kept the layout very simple so as not to cover up too much of the lovely designs. A Doo Hickey swirl, a flower and some pearls complete the card. You know by now I like to keep things pretty simple.
Thank you Maria, I really enjoyed making this card.
Thanks for looking and for any comments you may leave.
Love Elaine xxx

    I just love how you've used the pattern of the paper for the left panel & those stunning colours - gorgeously matching her blue eyes. That flowe is a joy with the pearl brad & I like the way the die cut swirls pick up the swirl pattern in the deep red patterned pape. The little red hearts on her shoes are a lovely detail too.

    Your coloring is spectacular (as always), your picture is straight and I love your choice of papers. Emphasizing the flower on the paper in the corners is lovely. Wonderful job as always!

    I love the colour combination, it just makes those big blue, sassy eyes pop! :) If I could colour sassy girls as beautifully as you... I'd love them at least as much!
