Lili having Fun in the Sun

Hi all, Been playing again, thought I would have a go at using my new butterfly punch again, did I say how much I looooove it lol! So had a go at shaping it around this circle easel card. Thought Lili Scooting was so appropriate for summer fun. Coloured her using Copics, must say just a little tricky cutting her out, been lots of tricky/fiddly bits with this card. Over at Inky Impressions Yahoo Group, there are a couple of challenges going on and a Mingle, there is a Mingle each month, after signing up has finished you get assigned a partner and you send each other a card, have taken part 3 times now, it is so much fun, if you like this idea you should come and join the group, they are a wonderful bunch of ladies.
A close up of Lili, I used special effects on her eyes, lips, knee pads and scooter. The sun charm has written on the back "Made with a Smile".

A close up the flowers I made, sat last night with needle and thread and ribbons and just messed and this is what I came up with, must say I am quite pleased with them, don't know what to call them. Didn't have peach in my stash so shall just have to go shopping lol! Going to buy some white and have a go at colouring with my copics, should be fun!
