Lili of the Valley - A Sketch


Morning .... is it only Thursday???? This week sure is dragging. Never mind, we have a beautiful sketch for you all to follow this week on Lili of the Valley and I really enjoyed following it. I decided to make an easel card even though they are a total nightmare to photograph ... tips anyone????


I actually managed to cut into my new papers on the very same day I bought them - how distressing. Love these pretty colours though. It is also the first time I have used this gorgeous stamp 'Christmas Candle' by Lili of the Valley - what a perfect image for any little girl at Christmas. Lots of gorgeous blooms too from Wild Orchid Crafts and Crafty Feeling.



Challenges

Crafts and Me - Easel Cards
Totally Gorjuss - Flowers
Totally Papercrafts - Let's go Dotty



I have pinched the brilliant idea of adding a little tag for a place to add a personal message from the mega talented Rach - such a lovely lady with more talent than is fair!

Off to work now but have a wonderful day and I hope you get to join us all for some sketch fun this week
