Eileen's Elegance

  I had to play with this image for today's release at McMahon Five Designs- I have a sister named Eileen.....  This is called Eileen's Elegance .
 I used the Sketch from the challenge at Sketch and Stash for my Inspiration.
 Part of the challenge is to use stash that has not been used in > 6 months...Perfect- I got our some Dew Drops- and a Corner Punch- and I found some Darcie's tags I bought at Stampaway in 7/2010 that is still unopened......

  I used Prima DSP on the card- and took a piece of the DSP and added it to the clear tag with Crystal effects. 
  I also used Prima mini roses and Prima lace- I sewed alot on the card. I added  Wisped Framed and Stacked Nesties both Technique Junkies techniques. I printed Eileen twice, and the top part of her hat is up on a dimensional.  I used Copic markers to color the image.

Challenges:
Sketch and Stash- Sketch
Flutter By Wednesday- use your scraps- on my sketch and acrylic tag
Truly Scrumptious-distressing
Anything goes-die cuts
Papertake Weekly- use three different shapes
Karen's Doodles- Distress it


Thanks for stopping by! Shelly
