Blanche.....

Had a play with one of my new Saturated Canary stamps called 'Blanche'...not very happy with how it turned out as I'm not sure about the solid colour background..also I could do with a few more blending colours in my Copics that I could have used on her dress...I would have been better using my pencils...
 Backing papers is from Stampin Up...Memory Box 'Fauntleroy Crest' die and   added a few added pearls.

I am off to the craft show at Farnborough tomorrow with 4 crafty friends and although  I have my little list you always come home with other things!!!  

Hope you all have a great weekend....

Anne

I think this works perfectly Anne! I love the colours and the white space of the image background makes Blanche really pop when combined with the dramatic black flocked DP on the card base.
