Feelin' Groovy

Time for a new House of Cards challenge--woo hoo!  This time your card must include a metallic element.  

In my card I used silver metallic embossing powder which is a combo I absolutely adore with green.  It was my first time coloring up a Some Odd Girl image (thanks to Kimberly!)--super fun.  Her hair was inspired by Julianne Moore from Still Alice.  I don't know who colors her hair but they do an amazing job making it look natural.  I popped her up on a bit of folded card; a technique that Lisa shared with me.  Now the card will be flat when mailed but little Mae will pop right up when she comes out of the envelope--surprise! 

The Details:  Some Odd Girl Music Mae, Lil' Inker Shiny Happy Sentiments, Copics, Versamark, Recollections silver detail embossing powder
