The Craft Garden January Challenge

This month's Craft Garden challenge is monochrome ... I went with blue.

I coloured this Saturated Canary image using my promarkers and then layered her up onto Basic Grey and Bo Bunny papers.  I used a martha Stewart punch to create the border and then added seam binding, a double bow and some flat backed pearls.
Challenges:
2 sisters - winter colours
One Stop Craft - winter wishes
Saturated Canary - winter
Papertake Weekly - sketch
I love promarkers - anything goes
Crafts and Me - anything Goes
 The Paper Shelter - tie a bow
My Mum's Craft Shop - anything goes
Anything Goes - blue + 1 (white)
Simon Says Stamp - anything goes
Dutchdare Card Challenge - favourite things (promarkers)
 Fabulous Friday - use something new (image)
Stampin for the Weekend - anything Goes
Everybody Art Challenge - Anything Goes
