I will admit that I was on the fence about whether I wanted to get the new Delightful Doilies set from PTI - doilies not typically being "my thing" - until I saw what Erin Lincoln did with it, coloring the doily images with Copics, a-la-Spirograph style! That was it. (I'm pretty sure I heard my wallet whimper!) So since I got my order earlier this week with these delightful little beauties in it, I've been wanting to try out the technique!
After a couple of not-so-great attempts, I decided on a white base with black ink, and lots of shades of pink, yellow, green and aqua added to the mix. It was fun to figure out different patterns to color - I will definitely be using this again!
I think the fun, bright colors and patterns are just perfectly paired with glitter for the Make It Monday challenge. For my glitter and Scor-tape element, I added the 2 strips of Scor-tape, and then peeled the backing away in stages, cutting diagonally, to add different colors of glitter. To keep the bling theme going, I added gems from Creative Charms in the same colors. The sentiment from Make A Wish finishes off the card!
Thanks for looking!

Holy Cow!!!! I love this card! You did a fantastic job. Now I can't wait to blow this popsicle stand (a.k.a. my lab), open up this stamp set and get all kinds of inky!
OH Debbie! This card is just FABULOUS! I think my mouth dropped open when it popped up on the screen. Love the colors you picked!
This is so pretty Debbie! LOVE how you colored in the doilies!!
This is the prettiest card I have seen using this set. The colors totally are what make it so beautiful. I love the different colors with prisma glitter on them. Really nice job Debbie.
AWESOME! You totally took it to a whole new level.
Oh my goodness! I was on the fence too with the doilies too, and Erin's card got me. And now, after seeing yours, WOW, I am so glad that I ordered them. I should have them next week and I can't wait to try this! FABULOUS!

You have patience, grasshopper, for coloring all those flowers in! And that multicolored glitter strip--fabby!
WOW WOW WOW! I can't tell you how much I LOVE this card!!! The bright colors and bold design blow me away! You have now convinced me I NEED that doily set (thanks, I think ;)
This is so pretty! I just love the bright colors, and I love the gradient of colors on the glitter!! Great job! ♥♥♥
Oh this is just stunning!!!
Oh my goodness. I totally remember coloring those images when I was a kid. So relaxing to just sit and color. I REALLY love how you did this! And the multi-colored glitter strip is awesome! Did you tear off only small portions of the scor tape paper at a time?
This is wonderful!! LOVE all the colors and how the doilies are FUN!! I also really like how you did the multiple colors of glitter on the score tape! Fantastic!
