It's time for an Anything Goes challenge again at One Stitch at a Time - it couldn't be easier to enter, you can make any project you like and just link it up at the OSAAT blog to be in with a chance to win. You don't have to use a Stitchy Bear image but if you do you'll be in with a chance to win a bunch of fabulous Stitchy Bear stamps. If you enter without a Stitchy Bear image you'll be entered into a draw to win a $3 gift certificate to the Stitchy Bear store.
For my card this week I used this gorgeous Quiet Contemplation image by Delicious Doodles:
I coloured the image with my Promarkers except for the kimono, which I paper pieced. I used some gorgeous floral fantasy papers that came free with a craft magazine and added some faux stitching with a fineliner pen.
I tucked a sentiment behind the image and finished things off with some die-cut flourishes (Marianne dies) and some pretty flowers.
I've sent this card to my Grandma for her birthday (which is tomorrow, as it happens). I hope she likes it. :)

This is gorgeous, Ali! I love the pretty floral paper - it sets off the beautiful image perfectly.
Simply stunning! I love the way you colored the image and the dies you used to highlight it. Thank you so much for sharing it with us at 4 Crafty Chicks.
Ali, what a pretty card you have made. She certainly is a beauty. It fits the Delicious Doodles Challenge this week well of die-cuts. Thank you for taking part and best wishes in the draw. Kym (Delicious Doodles Challenge Blog Design Team Member)
