Great Gatsby Girl

Quite a few months ago (October last year) I purchased some digi stamps from Time for Tea and, as usual with me, never got around to colouring them up. A couple of weeks ago I came across the folder again and decided that I was going to use at least one, and the one I chose was Great Gatsby Girl, which unfortunately doesn't seem to be available in store any more. I had also recently purchased a set of digi papers called Pretty as a Peacock, which used my favourite colour combo, and was desperate to use them, so I decided to pair the two together.

After colouring up the image I was really pleased with the way she turned out, (I even turned her headband feather into a peacock feather) so I used an 8 inch square card blank because I wanted to keep the image as large as possible.

I die cut some spellbinders borders, and used some art-deco elements to make up the frame around the image and sentiment.
