Sisters

Welcome once again - this weeks release from McMahon Five Design.com that I have illustrated is a vintage image Sisters

The image was coloured using chalks, and mounted on some medium blue paper to define it.

It is a beautiful image and a joy to use.

I had wanted a paper that did not detract from the image, and found this in a pad of paper by Kaisercraft. it is very subtly coloured, but has a glorious embossed surface on it.

The lace is ecru IRL and the ribbon and pearls a rich cream colour.

The card was finished with some more pearls in the corners.

And some punched butterflies and pearls flying off the top corner of the image.

Greetings, thank you for visiting, and I trust you feel welcome.

This is an image that is being released this week by McMahon Vintage called Puppy Love.

The image was coloured with chalks and the panel edges distressed and sponged.

The image was then mounted onto the angled plain paper, then onto the dp which is from the Prima 6x6 stack, Romantique - it is somewhat more green IRL than the camera showed.
