Morning all! I hope you're all enjoying your weekend. This is a very exciting post for me.
This was due to be my second post as GDT for The Ribbon Girls, but earlier this week Mary and Andrea asked me if I would like to join the team as a permanent DT member....well I'm telling you, I did not need asking twice! I was actually in work when I picked up the email, and I got some very strange looks as I was dancing in my chair and squealing with delight lol.
I'm joining the Lovely Lili Challenge Team, so this has become my first post as part of that team as the challenge this week is Lovely Lili - Christmas.
Now I've had this little cutie in my stamp collection since the LotV 10th Birthday Party, but this is the first time I've used her, isn't she a sweetie? I've linked products used at the end of my post.
I coloured her with Distress Ink markers
Skin: Tattered Rose, Tea Dye
Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain, Gathered Twigs
Dress, Shoes, Socks: Spun Sugar, Victorian Velvet, Pumice Stone
Crown and stars: Scattered straw, Wild Honey, Pumice Stone
Papers used are Pion Design - Winter Days. I inked and hand stitched my layers as always.
The snowfall is made with Liquid Applique and Glamour Dust .
I loved adding all these gorgeous TRG embellies!
I kept the inside fairly simple.
