I am a very lucky woman.... as i am on the DT of both SMEARED INK and DELICIOUS DOODLES.....
SMEARED INK are sponsoring DELICIOUS DOODLES this week and we have joined forces for this blog hop.
The new DD challenge is a sketch..... which i have used on my box front. The image is one of the January releases from SMEARED INK 'SMITTEN' set.
I used promarkers to colour my image and to colour papers from my stash.... i wanted an antique feeling..... and i hope i achieved it?
Below is the blog roll.....
Now..... as i cant have an empty box, i made this Victorian inspired corsage/brooch.... again the image is Smeared ink..... brass coloured mounts, chain etc..... cream silk, and peachy cream pearls.
I really hope you can find time to hop..... go in any order you want.... i am sure you'll find lots of inspiration..... these two DT's are brimful of talented ladies.
