Last week I did a craft lesson at Sir Stampalot (I may not have a local stitching shop but I do have a local craft shop) and made this little lovely.

I really like this stamp, she’s nice and versatile for different cards.  Managed to order her so I’ll add her to my growing collection soon.  This is coloured using distress inks and does look quite pale, I might need to try to get more colour happening in the face.  The dress is painted and then coloured over with a sakura gelly roll pen to make it sparkle.  Just like my sewings no matter how many pictures I take I just don’t seem to be able to capture the sparkle.

Yes it’s autumn here now and it’s been a warm start to it.  I’ll soon start to feel the chill in my sewing corner but my craft room is easier to keep warm.
