For a friend

Good morning! Fab 'n' Funky Challenges are back today after our summer break. This week's challenge is hosted by our very and talented Susan and she's picked a lovely theme for you...'for a friend'. We're sponsored  this time by the fabulous Crafts and Me .
To make my card I coloured the beautiful Genevieve image with my copics then placed her in the die cut and embossed frame (it's brown, not black as it looks in the photo!), cutting around part of her hair to spill over the frame. The papers are Authentique, I love these beautiful blue and brown shades together. I added some die cut flowers, a scrap of lace and a stamped sentiment.
Hope to see you playing along at Fab N Funky this week, it's such a great theme, it's always lovely to make something for a friend!
Thanks for visiting, have a wonderful day!

Stunning Chris! I love this image so much, I must pull mine out for another play. Love the gorgeous blue palette with the black accents, (yes it looks black, but I'm sure is fab in brown too!) so striking and gorgeous. Love your paper combo too. Beautifully crafted card hun. Hugs, Wends xoxo (How have the weekends away gone?!)

Wow, Chris, what beautiful colours in your card! The designer paper makes a wonderful background for your gorgeous young lady. She is perfectly coloured and seems ready to say something. What a clever idea to have her continue right out of the die-frame, too. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

Lovely friend card Chris. I like the Genevieve image with her haunting eyes and demure smile. The colour mix of browns and blue is a perfect backdrop for this image and the frame really works well. Thanks for joining us this week at the Watercooler Wednesday Birthday challenge Chris, beautiful card.
