For today's Inspiration Challenge, Harabu House, that has such beautiful items. I chose this Handprinted Park Tea Towel to make a birthday card for my new daughter-in-law. Her favorite color is red. She's also a red head.
This is the first time I've colored red hair or used a lot of red with the Copic markers...took me forever! But it was the most fun I've ever had coloring. It's also the first time I've used a stamp from The Greeting Farm...love the Cheeky Rockabilly cutie pie. I want more! The red and black ovals, her shoes, outfit, and eyeshadow are all highlighted with Spica Glitter pens...another first. Even though you can't really see it, it sparkles IRL. Galyna LOVES glitter, so I had to use a lot. Thanks to my DDL, this is way out of my normal box of cardmaking...and I'm loving it.
Making this card was just pure fun...kinda like my red headed Gala. TFL!

The red hair looks fabulous on this cheeky girl! You know how much we girls love our gems, so the flourish of rhinestones is perfect! The red perfectly reflects your inspiration piece! Sweet!
