Bedtime Reading

I've got another 'just for fun' card to share with you today.  This time I've got another image from Krista Smith, the beautiful Books and Bedhead.   I'm not really sure I've got the colouring of her hair quite right on this first attempt, so may have to have another try again soon.    I coloured the light bulb with Stardust pens so it really sparkles.

I love shaped cards, and try to make them whenever I have time to be more creative.  I admit that I really like this card.  After yesterday's break from my traditional designs, this one is soooooo my style.  I love the pretty glittered papers, pink & brown colour scheme, and despite the image taking up most of the card space, I still managed to sneak in some flowers and pearls.
