Rosie and a bit of gingham


 I coloured the image in using my pens and then added the doilly.  I love the simple lines of this sketch, and it really helps focus on the image and the gorgeous gingham papers.  I rolled flowers and added pearls  to their centres, some ickle pearls in a swirl, lace and some twine.

Oh I do so love this lil angel. There's just something about her!!! Love the gingham, I have a bit of a personal obsession with it, especially red! So I love what you've done with it. The doily, lace, flowers and lovely sentiment are perfect touches for this lovely card. Hugs, Wends xxxx
