Princess!



Hi! I have to say that I didn't think I would find any paper to go with this image. Every time I go to the store and look for lavender and purple papers, I end up leaving with nothing. Is it just me, or do they not have any pretty purple type papers out there? Anyway, I decided to take a different turn with this and pair it with creams, tans, and browns. Once I decided that, finding paper in my stash was a breeze! lol I used my color pencils to color a white butterfly so that it would match my image and I used distress ink in concord grape to touch up the flowers so they would all blend. I couldn't decide which Doohickey tag to use on here, so I used both....no use fighting with myself over it! haha Hope everyone has a great day!!! : )

  20. Lovely card, Karen. Your Tilda is gorgeous and I love her purple dress. A nice POP of this color really makes her stand out. Fabulous papers, flowers, stitching and stamping on Tilda's frame. I love that technique.
