A Card for Paige and a plea for help

I made this card for a very, very brave young lady called Paige. Erin is calling for as many of us as possible to make a card for a very poorly little girl and her family. Erin's neighbour Paige (aged 12) was in a serious boating accident and lost part of her arm. Please visit Erin's blog to find out more and to send a card too.



I made this card for Paige from several challenges, Truly Scrumptious provided the sketch and 'Indian Summer', Papertake - 'fairies or angels', and Copic Colour Challenge set the colour combo.


E04,R02, G99, YG67, Y15, Y17, RV21, RV23, E51, E00

The patterned paper is DCWV and all plain is Coredinations. The sweet little digi image is from The Digistamp Boutique. I didn't have any of the Copics for this weeks colour combo so I opted for as close as I could get, didn't realise how bad the shading was on the hair until I took the photo! (I was in a dim lit room while my boys slept).

I added a touch of sparkle with Glamour Dust and glitter gems and that's it. I think I have to link to Erin's blog now and post her the card too as she will hand deliver it to Paige.
