I watercoloured the image and distressed her. I matted her onto pale pink cardstock and inked the edges in dark brown. The dp is also matted onto pink and the edges inked. I have kept the layout very simpl, using flowers and swirls as decoration, rather than papers (but this could be because I was lacking on the dp front LOL!!). The flowers are punched and inked up and a gem put in the middle.
Recipe:
Stamp(s): Sugar Nellie Windswept
Colouring Media: distress inks
Papers: Basic Grey Sugared
Embellishments: punched flowers and swirl, ribbon and gems from stash

Stamp with Fun Challenge 2
Grandparents are brilliant people!! They have entertained the girls this afternoon so I have yet more crafting!! Another new challenge for me, Stamp with Fun. It is their 2nd challenge, pink and brown. As I am stash restricted and not the biggest fan of pink on earth this was a little challenging ... but here is my card.
