You see, Becky's going on a mini-break with her new boyfriend and he's very impressed she's only packed one tiny suitcase! Little does he know she's already sent the two big ones ahead to their hotel ;o).
This image can be used for a great many things, such as a bon voyage card, or a miss you card, or an invitation for a friend to come stay with you :D. I have used the new sketch over on Pink {Ink} Sketch Challenges for this card, provided by the lovely and very talented Kylie :D!
I have used My Mind's Eye papers, Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Eighteen, the suitcase stamp is from Magnolia, the doily (just visible) is made with My Favorite Things Die-namics, the flowers with EK Success Retro Flower punches, the sentiment is by Papertrey Ink, the pearls are from Queen & Co and Zva Creative, the butterflies from Rayher and the Copic colours are: E00, E51, E93, E21 (skin, cheeks, lips), Y28, E53, E50 (hair), W7, W5, W3, W2, W1 (greys).
