Little Lady in Blue



I made this card yesterday for the challenge at Bah Humbug, I just haven't had time to enter the last two challenges but couldn't wait to use this gorgeous LOTV stamp I bought at the Craft Show in Manchester last Friday, I coloured her with Copics. The papers are Magnolia and Craft Creations and I distressed the edges and added some Stickles. The Poinsettia is cut with a Marianne die and covered with Twinklets, I added ribbon, buttons with silk threaded through and a computer generated sentiment. I'm not very happy with the photo's but the weather is so dull at the moment it's very hard to get a decent one.
