I am always admiring this style of card on people's blogs so I decided to have a go at making one. The image is one of a new vintage range from Pink Gem and they are adorable. Such great images for practicing colouring hair and skin. I'm quite pleased with the hair and face but the arm colouring could be better. The trouble is if I fiddle too much the layers build up and she would end up looking like she had a suntan.

Morning Marianne....Aww wow this is sooooooo cute!! so beautifully presented with lots of detail added xx
Marianne...your card is so sweet. I really love the different papers and colors you have used together on this card. All so soft and so pretty together. The little additions of the die cut butterflies, birdcage and filmstrip, delicate flowers and sweet little metal bird cage add interest. Your little digi Mollie is so sweet. You've done a nice job of colorizing her with your Copics. Thanks so much for sharing your card with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
