Time for Tea

Today's share is something totally different. No more one layer cards for me!


I enjoyed doing this one.. It's the first one I have really 'coloured in' and I did the colouring with a water brush and distress inks/stains. I have no interest in the detailed colouring that people do with things like promarkers, and I really don't like all the cutesy stamps with children playing (especially those Tilda stamps - they look like cabbage patch dolls, grim!), so I didn't ever see myself going for the whole 'colouring in' stuff! But I did quite enjoy doing this. You can tell I need a bit of practice!!!

    A lovely finished card.

    I do enjoy colouring .. .. must go back to my childhood .. .. but do struggle with the images that have no mouths.

    Love your colour combo!

  3. Hi M! This is fabulous! I truly don't like those mouthless children either. I can’t understand how they ever became so popular.

  4. I love this M! It reminds me of the sort of tea shop where they bring you cake selections on a cake stand and produce flowered china! I like the checked background and your colouring looks great to me.
