Here's my latest card - this is really quite girly not me at all but I'm really pleased with the results.
I've coloured the stamp with promarkers and a pink watercolour pencil as I don't have any skin tone markers. Yet another thing to add to the shopping list!
I've tried my hand at distressing, inking the edges of the papers (which are Pink Petticoat - I LOVE magazine freebies!). I also tried to distress the pink card framing the image - I've not done a great job - and it doesn't show up too well on this photo. Not surprising as I was too lazy to go and find some sandpaper and don't own a fancy distressing tool. Instead I improvised and used a pair of nail clippers!
