Do You Need a Pair of Helping Hands?

Well, this sunny Monday morning Teddy sure does!  This angelic nurse is yet another fabulous image from Karen's Doodles.  She is aptly named "Little Helping Hands".  This week Karen's Doodles US Challenge Blog challenges you to use 2 patterned papers, 1 ribbon, 3 brads or gems, and border.  


Surprisingly I had this card originally put together Saturday, however due to my dissatisfaction I had to bring it with us to Calgary.  Well it turns out that apparently I wasn't finished with it!  She wanted stitching and a sentiment on a cute tag.  So, here she is after those minor changes: 


Are you amazed at the changes?  I was so excited afterwards that I had to take another photo - angled this time - to really show all the dimension.


This card was created following the sketch designed by Nikki this week at A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge Blog and used the copics in the current challenge at Copic Colour Challenge:


The hair for the angelic nurse in "Little Helping Hands" is coloured with a base of Y23, followed with YR21 and YR12.  Her dress incorporates the blue and the E47 was used to accent the lines of the wood on the bed.

Please join us this week at Karen's Doodles US Challenge Blog with your creation incorporating 2 patterned papers, 1 ribbon, 3 brads and /or gems, ands a border.  I look forward to seeing what YOU create!

Wow Shana, amazing what a few small changes can make! Stitching is so nice on cards, and you pulled it off beautifully. Just another "tool" I need to learn how to use. Great card.
