Gilli Asian :: Blossom

Hello everyone…Pastel & Bling…Hard to pass this challenge right? Who is not inspired by the full spectrum of colors that Spring bring us..Although it is pretty cold around Gilliland…lol.

Have you joined is in Stephanie sweet adventure thru the soft tones? For my pastel & bling project I was inspired by the softness of cherry blossoms.  I colored Gilli Asian with copic markers. The sparkles from the bag and accessories were added using stickles…star dust. Also colored with copics, my paper flowers (prima)…to add a little dimension to the flower the centers were made with glass seed beads. Also adding to the dimensionality of the sketch I cut slits of paper colored with a soft green tone of copic.  My lovely lattice background is a design from the online Silhouette library. I colored my lattice a rainbow color combo created using different Distress Inks…I went hard core and added real glitter on the top of the lattice….the picture doesn’t make justice to the softness that the glitter add to the background.
You still have a little time to joing the challenge…so grab your markers and let your imagination guide you! We will be around to come and visit you…
Tomorrow we will be starting a brand new challenge with Becca…so stay tuned for more astonishing projects from the Gilli Design Team! Don’t forget to bring your Gilli Project…you could be having some fun with us as a guest DT for the week!
Lots of hug.

Challenge #3--Pastels with Bling!

Gilli Gets Bling!

Today I'm sharing a fun card I made for a NEW House of Gilli Challenge HERE!  We have been challenged us to GO PASTEL WITH BLING on our Gilli stamps!  Easy peasy me thinks!  I used this beautiful "Girly Gilli"--isn't she adorable, reminds me of my teen daughter Alexa!  The papers are by Basic Grey called "Hopscotch" & I loved the muted tones of peaches and greens and fun patterns.  The sentiment is from PTI and that lovely paper trim was done with a MS border punch.  The fun flower accents were cut with Spellbinders dies and then embossed with different Cuttlebug embossing folders.

And yes she was colored with Copics (but of course sillies, LOL)!  I used G04,G02,G00/R02,R00/E11,E00/E37,E35,YR20,E50.  I put some stickles on her shoes and accents for some bling--every gal has gotta have bling right?

Now you can see the whole line of Gilli stamps and accessories at StampingScrapping.com here!  And come join in the challenge here at the House of Gilli  for a fabulous prize!!

Thanks and Enjoy the Day,
