Second Card for A Spoonful of Sugar No 2


I was really dissapointed at the way my first card photographed it looked so washed out, so I have done a second card. This one has been coloured with Faber Castell Polychromos pencils and Sansodor. The centre of the flower has been glittered with pale green glitter, I embossed a card wrap from Craftwork cards after colouring it with pale pink chalk eyes, after embossing I thought I would Rub the ink pad back over on the wrong side for a change I am quite pleased with it. Ribbon and Brads are Poppicraft and DP Basic Grey. Much happier with this one. TFL
