This is my entry for Rainbow Lady's Challenge this week.
For a change it's an ATC. Everyone who knows me knows that I'm not the most fashionable of people but I do love things to do with fashion. I've had the Hero Arts 'Gracious Lady' stamp for a while now but have never used it before.
For this ATC I did what I think is called 'Paper Piecing' in that I stamped the image several times on different coloured card and cut separate elements of it out to create the final picture. The only colouring I did was on her face where I gave her a slightly rosy glow.
I attached the finished picture to an ATC sized piece of amethyst card and embellished it with some gem stickers from my stash.
Oh I just love this Ali so beautifully done and a great stamp. I also just love your wonderful puss cat.

She's a very gracious lady Ali and you've treated her exactly as she deserves to be! Gorgeous. You're right about the paper piecing by the way.
