Yep I'm back again so soon

This time I wanted to show you my card for the Bi Weekly Challenge

over at Make It Colourful.

This time Zoe and the gang want us to try and create the effect of

SHEER CLOTHING.......

OMG i thought but just had to give it a go (I love theses challenges)

they are just that a challenge and I'm shocking myself all the time..

Heres my card

I have used Annabelle from Make It Crafty

I started off by extending the frame under her dress with very fine pencil lines,

then I used copics v000 and bvoo on the skirt and bodice off

the dress, then i used the colourless blender to take out some colour

till i was happy with the effect, i then used c1, c3, c5 and added

a touch of c7 to the frill. I also extended the big bow at the back of

the dress....I hope this makes sense...... cause it does to me lol
