I've been very slow and a procrastinator about getting a card posted but finally, here it is. This is a Saturated Canary image call Kisses and my first go at doing curly hair. It's not the best but I am happy with it nonetheless. I made this card well over a year ago and it's been in a small stash of unposted cards until now. I don't know why her skin looks so pink... I even took more pictures and the proper colour just doesn't show.
I lightly sponged Tim Holtz's Weathered Wood distress ink around the image and sprinkled some of that wonderful Frantage around the image and on the hearts.
A bit of an update on the move... well, that is very slow. We are still painting and now installing some new cupboards. It seems like we aren't accomplishing a whole lot but once those cabinets are in and I finish painting the closets, we will be much, much closer.
Thanks for stopping by. I do enjoy your visits and comments and cannot wait to get back to crafting more.
Have a great week!

I always love stopping by your blog : ) I love SC images, and how masterfully you have colored this sweet image! I love this card! The frantage adds a great touch of dimension too. Glad the move is coming along, even if slowly.... Not cold here but August has been rainy..... The farmers and flowers need it : )
