Penny Black - Lolly

Hi everyone.  Today's card uses one of the smaller sets from the new Secret Garden release, Lolly (30-688). Come on! ... I had to have this. :)  

I stamped Lolly (30-688) and heat embossed with black.  Then used distress inks to colour her.  She is adorable!  Couldn't help but smile the whole time I was watercolouring her. :)  I fussy-cut her and the lollypop separately.  Used a Paper Towel Background (click on link to see video tutorial) from my stash, stamped the image again, and paper pieced with my fussy-cut image.  This is so colourful and fun!

Close-up ...
Thanks for stopping by!

    No wonder you had to have this sweet little lady Loll, it was a no brainer! I love the texture from the paper towel in that pretty mix of blue and green to accompany little Lolly and you have coloured her beautifully. x
