Another Wee Florist

Another scheduled post from me - and another version of Sylvia's Wee Florist digi image available from Cuddly Buddly. Just the one picture today as my camera wouldn't focus in close up - one of these days I will get it right! I've gone for summer colours this time, but kept things pretty with the soft lilac papers in the background. I've coloured with my Copics, the usual skin tones E000, 00 and 21 plus a touch of R00 for blush. Her hair is YR21, 24 and E33 with the roses coloured in Y21, 35 and 38. The leaves are YG21 and 25 and her trousers are YG95, 93, 91 and E41. The shoes and bucket are E41, 42, 43 and 44, and the pretty lilac shades are V00, 01, 12 and 15.

I coloured the roses with the pens to match then die cut various Marianne bits and pieces to create the embellishments. The text is another from the Sweet Summer Sentiments set and I finished with a little organza ribbon and golden gem hearts.

The Charisma Cardz blog challenge is for sunshine colours so I'm entering my card with them, and Crafty Catz don't want to see any pink or blue this week - so I'm with them too. I'll have to link back when I get home, if I'm not too tired after a day unloading boxes and playing on the beach!

  4. This is a real stunner - love the orange with green & mauve; my idea of perfection but I do think God thought of it first with his crocus colours. Hope you're keeping OK too.
    Much love
