Hi Sassy this is so lovely and great colouring. So nice to see the children they grow up so quickly
I think you managed this brilliantly!!
This is just gorgeous, love the image and fab colouring.xxx
Gorgeous card darling, beautiful lace and detail. Aww i'm glad you've had a lovely day with your Son and grandchildren, enjoy the rest of your weekend. luv gina xx
Love this Sassy! I think the dies I used on my Wedding card were either Memory Box or Cheery Lyn. I would get them from either Sunrise Crafts or Maddylisa. Sounds like we think the same! lol Hope your weekend is going well, Judy x
This is gorgeous and the colouring is perfect,what paper did you use in the end as it has given great results.

Hi Love the distress inks you will be addicted know I use them on everything lol ! I love the blues on her so pretty ! I like the colour of the pearls too ! Your Grand daughter sounds so clever Wow at 2 !! ;0)
well done Sweetie!!! This your first time? Come on...it's fantastic and I know many other ppl who only use Distress Inks and are so bad in colouring :o)) LOL! I really mean it when saying that it's brilliant! The card is gorgeous and if you think your bluepearls are too bright, you could make them darker with some colour, crackle paint or something. I like it the way that they are.
Hugs, Alessandra
Only you could make a distressed inked card look so beautiful Sassy - lol.
Love how she's sitting on the edge of the lace, really pretty.
Glad you had a nice time with family xx
Hello Sweetie, and thank you so much for your lovely words of encouragement on my blog - now let me return the compliment! I think you have done an amazing job with the distress inks! Well done you!! I love painting with DI's and I use WH Smith's watercolour paper, 300gsm, but I always look for the smoothest I can get - some can be quite 'bobbly' while others are much smoother. (Their watercolour postcards, although expensive, are just beautiful to paint on!). Keep up the great work, you're doing a fabulous job - your card is sensational! :o) xx
ps - you could enter this in the Midweek Magnolias theme this week as it's May Flowers! ;o) xx
Just wonderful card!! Beautiful Tilda...elegant in blue and white :)
Hugs,
Sonia
