Challenge 79 at Colour Create

Hi all - isn't this just the most beautiful picture that my fabby teamie, Sylvia, has chosen as our new colour challenge at Colour Create:

Pink, Brown and White or Cream with the optional extra of lace.
8 Sept - Challenge  79 - Sylvia
I've used a Mo Manning image, the fabulous Damsel  which you can find here,  along with some Pink Paisly papers, a homemade flower  and a sentiment from a mahoosive K&Co set that was one of my first craft purchases about 5 years ago!!
You can just see below that I've toned down the bright gold of my filigree corner with some acrylic paint. Tell you what I didn't do - I didn't add any colour or texture to her collar and cuffs!!  Doh - just noticed!!

Michele's Scrapbooking are sponsoring this challenge, so hope you get  a chance to play along with us and be in with a possibility of winning some crafty goodies!!


Short post from me today, bit busy both at work and home at the moment.  And I so know that I've been a bad blogger of late and just haven't had a chance to visit other blogs - my loss!!  I'm just waiting for delivery of a couple of things then I'm going to put up  that little thank you candy I promised for all you lovely people who still find time to leave a comment here!  Big hugs and thanks to you all!
