Raise the Bar

Raise the Bar Challenges had a extra special request.....
Would some of the EDT of Rick St Dennis like to contribute to the DT cards for their current sketch? Well I was colouring in another of these fabulous images of Rick's and I do like to follow some sort of sketch as inspiration. What better way of showing this image off!
I had already chosen Candi as my image and my colours. Coloured here with promarkers with just a dash of  perfect pearls. Cut out and mounted onto a pearlised deep purple Die'sire die cut.

The sketch

My card

The background stamps are from TH. Heat embossed in silver onto purple card. I felt Candi had a touch of French in her so went in this direction. each piece die cut with a Die'sire die cut and backed onto a slightly lighter shade but edges inked with dusty concorde DI.
All mounted onto a lilac backing card. More of the lilac was used for the sentiment. Heat embossed this time in purple. The stamp is from a steam punk hand bag range from Creative Expressions.
A piece of silver edged lilac satin ribbon from stash. A large jewel mounted onto a small picture frame charm with some pearls hide the untidy edge of the feathers and a stranded string of lilac jewels adds yet more bling.
There's still time to enter the challenge at Raise the Bar for the chance to win some of Rick's amazing images.
