The Paper Shelter DT - Flowers, flowers, flowers

Good Morning Everybody!! I'm soooo excited as I write this post as this is my very first card for The Paper Shelter woohoo!!! Couldn't believe that I actually made it onto this fabby design team, I just love all their images and paper packs! For my card today I have used one of the new images called "Walk like an Egyptian". Isn't she just gorgeous?! Another reason for me deciding to use this image in particular was to practice colouring a darker skin tone which isn't showing up as dark as it is irl.

The dps I have used are also from The Paper Shelter and I have matted everything onto coredinations cardstock. The swirl is again my famous doohickey die and the flowers are all from Wild Orchid Crafts. Pearls are from my stash. I will be entering my card into the following challenges :
Allsorts - Free and easy
Make It Colourful - Colouring dark skin
Moving along with the times - Brand spanking new (new dt and image)
Papertake Weekly - Anything goes
Thanks for stopping by and sharing in my excitement and please do try and join in with our fun challenge this week over at The Paper Shelter. Lotsa luv, hugs xxxx
