I printed the digi image cup346935_1056 out at smaller than the given size and then coloured her in with my Promarkers. After this I cut her out close to the outline. I printed out two sheets from this background kit onto 300gsm Super Smooth cardstock (the same cardstock I'd printed the digi onto) and used my Grand nestabilities dies to cut out the base layer and one mat from the backgrounds, also cutting some flowers with some small dies from around the edge of the cardstock outside the nestability shape. I also cut a white shape from a slightly smaller die from the enstabilities set. I gently shaped the coloured in digi and used glue gel to attatch her to the white mat, then layered this directly onto the yellow mat using fingerlift tape. This matted image was then attached to the front of the card I'd made using 1mm deep, double sided, foam tape. I finished off by putting one of the flowers I'd cut out on her hair where the bow is, and just dotting three more at the edge of the card.

There are some really gorgeous shades of colours in this kit. With such a range of colour dpth they are sure to fit in with many papercraft projects, whether subtle greens or yellows are needed, or whether some really zingy oranges or dark greens are needed.
