OK so what did I do then?
Well I used this super sweet image which is called
Window Seat
And ......
... I coloured it with these Copics -
Skin - E000, E00, E11, E13, R00, R02
Hair - E35, E59,
The rest - C00, C1, C2, C3, C4, C7, E30, E31, E35, E39, E41, E42, E43, R02, R05, R17, R27, R59, YG00, YG03, YG95
Phew I THINK that's it!!!
I'm sorry but I found the papers in the bottom of my paper drawers and the front cover had come off but I have a feeling they are Bazzill papers.
A yummy bit of Ribbon Girl-age in the form of a bow made from 25mm small black check ribbon, a Red Small Polka Dot Spotty Button, some Cream Jute Mesh Ribbon and some Medium Red Berries
So that;s my card done and now it's time to get back to the hop.
Don’t forget to stop by the Ideas to Inspire blog tomorrow evening when you can find out who the lucky winner is of that great prize
Enjoy the hop… and good luck!
Huggiest of hugs to all and congratulations on our new Royal Baby :)
So beautiful! I love the new stamps.
