Lets Celebrate

I'm still working on my holiday album....but spent an evening at a crafty friend's cardmaking......a bit more Brit celebration......and so out came my Portobello Road papers again......paired with this wonderful 'limited edition' digi image from Simply Betty Stamps.....is she cool or what?? I have found her extremely difficult to colour though......as you may notice.....this was the first one........I did get a bit better. I was trying to keep the card 'flat'........but then couldn't resist the button in her hair.
Sir Stampalot want 'medals and monarchs' this month.......'ooh la la' for Cupcake Crafts.....and'celebrations' for One Stop Crafts

You've coloured her well Jacky - the button is a nice touch too!

I like the button too...she reminds me of a slightly more demure Gerri Halliwell from her Spice Girl days!! :D

That stamp is just adorable, and I love the way you have colored it in. I'm happy you chose to use that cute button in her hair because it really sets it off. :o)
