Conie Fong Leilani

Good Morning Crafty Friends,

Happy Sunday to you all, we are having a nice relaxing weekend.

I got a lot of bits and bobs done in my craft room yesterday.

Today sharing with you a new card using the beautiful Leilani from Conie Fong.

This is another of my GDT for Conie Fong and just love her images, please check out her Etsy Store.

The Copics I used to colour Leilani are:

Skin - E50, E51, E53, R20

Hair - V09, C8, C6, C4

Flowers - V5, V12

Dress - V4, V6, V9

Eyes - B66, B69

Step by Step

1. 7 x 7 white square scalloped base card, front scored in half to create an easel card.

2. On base of card I matted and layered purple and grey patterned paper, wrapped black and gold ribbon around both layers and adhered pearl and gem cabochon.

3. On front fold of card matted and layered the same card as on the base.

4. Printed Leilani and coloured with Copics then matted and layered onto black card.

5. To finish off added a flourish which I coloured with V09 and added flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.
