Uplifting Occasion

Penny Black...'Uplifting Occasion'. Sarn inspired me to make this one as hers was so lovely, take a look at her blog sometime, it's fab. She makes such great cards. Added three flowers, as odd numbers are always more appealing (so I'm told) and I tend to agree. Used a clear Jelly Roll pen to colour in the lace on the bra to add a little 'sparkle', the rest was coloured with watercolour pencils and the background paper is from www.kellypanacci.com and is called Marooned Daisies (RMKSCB95).

this is really nice, I like the fact that you have used bold card as background and not a lot of colour on the design, I tried to watercolour this image the other day, but wasn't happy with it, so maybe I will steal your idea.....

Have you seen Sarn's version, it's really nice? I think there's some nice versions on the Penny Black website too.

I think I need to look at more examples..........

Definitely, the Penny Black website is a great place to look if you want inspiration of what to do with your PB stamps. Same as Whipper Snapper if you've got any of them.

You saw a sneaky preview last night Fae - I just finished this card off today with silicone glue for the decoupage bits. DEFINITELY stealing the glitter idea as I LOVE it soooo much.

OK - so I'm just going add glitter, then I'll take a photo and stick it on my blog, so you can see the new improved version!
