I saw a challenge to use pink and green and thought that was a nice colour combination I would give it a go so I hunted out some paper. The paper is from a gorgeous stack by K and Co called Sweet Nectar and I have had it years - I think this is the first time I've used it!!! I don't know about you but I am a bit of a paper junkie I keep getting it because its lovely then I hate using it because its too nice. The annoying thing is that papers do go in and out of fashion and some I have had a while are starting to look dated so I have decided to start using them more. I have coloured Tilda with Copics and distressed the edge of the image with Spun Sugar Distress Ink. I have cut the image out and matted her using Labels 12 by Spellbinders. The mat has been embossed with a small hearts embossing folder. Flowers are from Wild Orchid as is the metal corner which I coloured with Copics. The heart is punches out with a Nellie Snellen die and the letters with a Tim Holtz alphabet die. The swirls are made with a Memory Box die and the heart border with a Martha Stewart punch, ribbon from stash.

I know what you mean about paper, because I love beautiful papers too. For this last year I only bought paper three times, which was very difficult, promising myself to start using up what I have. I still have a fair bit to use, but I'm getting real itchy about getting more paper! lol
