I just love Saturated Canary images, and this “Little Loves”<\/a> is absolutely one of my favorites. I made up this card for my friend Sarah in the cutsie style I know she favors. Plus, because I know she is a dog lover like me, I finally went into my hoard vault and used this adorable patterned doggy paper from Studio Calico Here + There Collection<\/a>. LOL \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I started by first just adding some layering with some teal colored card stock and then the doggy paper. Then I used the La-La Land Crafts Heart Doily Die<\/a>\u00a0to cut out some pink card stock and a piece of polka dot vellum to layer under the image.<\/p>\n

I used the following Copic colors to color the little girl:
\nHair: E55, 57 and 59
\nSkin: E000, 00, 11 and 13 with R20 blush and BV01 shading
\nEyes: BG72 and 75 (I also used a 0.03 point Copic multiliner to clarify the lines of the eyes and add some more eyelashes to glam her up a bit)
\nButterfly: R20
\nLips: R85 and 89
\nShading on paper pieced dress (which I cut from the same doggy paper): W1 and 3<\/p>\n

<\/a>For the sentiment, I used the word dies “hello” and “love” from the Diemond Dies Word Die Set #1<\/a>, which I cut out three times each and glued together to give some more dimension to the words. To finish off the front I used some sheer teal ribbon, used my Craft-Dee BowZ<\/a> to tie a triple loop bow, and added some pink and white roses and a little pink and green leaf.<\/p>\n

I also made two ATCs for Sarah’s daughters Emma (10) and Libby (4). \u00a0They, like their mom also like teal and pink and are very girlie girls. \ud83d\ude00 The C.C. Designs Elfie standing on a bed of dimensional bling, paper and metal flowers is for Libby, and the C.C. Designs Sweetheart ATC with the heart shaker, which I made using the Diemond Dies Nesting Heart Die Set<\/a>, is for Emma.<\/p>\n

To add shimmer, shine and sparkle to all three images, I used glitter glue on Elfie’s wings and the heart shaker; clear Wink of Stella on Little Love’s butterfly and lips; and Glossy Accents on Little Love’s eyes and Sweetheart’s balloons. \u00a0YAY for shimmer, shine and sparkle!<\/p>\n
