Better Photos for LOTV Challenge


There is a glimpse of daylight this morning so I quickly snapped a couple of better photos for my entry into this weeks LILI OF THE VALLEY CHALLENGE - Rosie With Presents was just screaming out for her to be a little red head!  Unfortunately, Vince was trying to help me and I didn't notice the stray cat hair that had snuck into the picture until I uploaded it just now!

Not sure how well you can see the detail of her hair but I used one of those paintbrushes with long and short bristles, just damp, and it gives a lovely effect of hair strands I think.

Will pop back later with another card for another challenge.
Hugs, Sxx

    Oh gorgeous card, Squirrel! I so love her hair! Your colouring is fantastic, and the papers gorgeous and so perfect with your image... Yes, I know, maybe I should start picking papers first, and then colour... Lots of hugs Delphine xx
