Growing up in a ballet family, I don't mind making the odd ballet card. I quit ballet when I was 10, but my sister is a ballet teacher, so I am definitely still around it all! I thought this one would be great as an encouragement card for a girl doing exams or eisteddfods. Whether she's already competed or is about to, just telling her you think she's amazing is a wonderful gesture. I used the gorgeous Tiddly Inks stamp Be Bold, Be You, and coloured her with copic markers, including the area around her with a grey marker, which I've never done before but loved the look. I added some lace and clear buttons, and of course the You're Amazing die for Simon Says Stamp. Stamps: Be Bold be You (Tiddly Inks)
Ink: Copic Markers
Cardstock: Whisper White, Basic Black and the two blue/purples I'm not sure of (Stampin Up). Copic X-Press It
Papers: Yours Truly (Glitz Designs)
Accessories: Stampin Up dazzling diamonds, chevron ribbon and clear buttons, unknown feather, Spotlight lace, Jolly Olly's silver stars, Tim Holtz edge distressor
love this card, so cute
