For Someone Very Special

Photo Details
Poster: helekins

 Finally managed to upload this card after a few hiccups.

Stamped the new Andy Skinner stamp with VersaFine Clair Nocturn using Misti. Make sure that the ink pad is nice and juicy and the stamp will be good on the first impression. Coloured with distress inks and fine paint brush. Thinning out the colour with water. Used water colour paints for a soft background. Added a sweet little sentiment. Framed with a loopy die made from a watercolour background,

Hope you enjoy.

That soft watercolored background is gorgeous, and your sweet little girl is colored beautifully. The layered elements add the perfect touch.

That is a wonderful image and you have colored it perfectly! The BG is so delicate and adds to the nostalgia of the card. The loopy frame adds to the whimsy!
