Christy Croll - Victorian Couple

Good evening one and all


 Am really pleased with this card I made tonight and the fact I have killed two birds with one stone.  I started making this for theTiddly Inks Everything goes Challenge this week and then I get a phone call from a friend asking me to put togther a wedding card... brilliant huh!
 

The image is Victorian Couple which I have used a couple of times for wedding cards and just love colouring this one.  The background papers used are printed from CUP/  The doves I had in my stash covered in stickles glitter glue.  In fact I went a little mad with it tonight.. well why not LOL.The guipere lace and heart charm came from WOC as did the metal corner.  I used ribbon from my stash and the scroll and roses were handmade all by myself LOL.




The image was coloured using prismacolor pencils and I purchase them from 1buy1pencils.  The bow was tied by me and I have a couple of hat pins in the bow.  Definitely not to be played with by children.

Anyway thats enough from me tonight.  I now have to get this onto Tiddly Inks while I'm in the mood for this tempremental laptop.  No more crafting for me tonight, well not physically however mentally I am sure I will be thinking about it seeing as I am obssessed.
Goodnight all and please feel free to leave a comment cos I just love it when you do LOL..

  11. You would never believe this.. it was a guy who bought it from me and he had told me that he informed his wife that he was going to sort the card out and I believe he had to pick her up from the shock of him offering... It is definitely loved by the ones sending it and I am hoping it will be loved by the recipients.. actually who wouldn't appreciate it as it a gorgeous image x
