This was kind of hard for me & I'm not real pleased w/ the results. I may be revising this later. But these adorable easelboards from Victorian Trading Co. inspired me: http://www.victoriantradingco.com/st...1a/i20736.html
As soon as I saw this I planned to use the Greeting Card Kids stamps. They remind me of the Campbell Soup Kids too. I watercolored w/ Crayola w/c set. What's more victorian than only 8 color choices? I tried to distress a bit too by roughing the edges w/ my scissors & then crumpeling the newsprint dp.
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

These kids are so cute! Using the limited spectrum watercolors works really well for this image. Cute layout, the paper makes a wonderful BG. Hugz...glad to see so much more of you in the gallery!
