I'm still feeling a little under the weather, but better than yesterday. I got a good night's sleep and that always helps doesn't it?
Today's color challenge at SCS was Pink Pirouette, Riding Hood Red and Chocolate Chip. So here's what I created....a good departure from all the greens I've been using.
This little set goes on sale tomorrow in the Occasions Mini Catalogue. It has a real sweetness to it. I inked the "bench" just as a shelf in this one on watercolor paper and added the Windmill Birdhouse and bird on the shelf...it could almost be a branch looking at it that way...but a very straight branch! Watercoloring with reinkers, cut out with the coluzzle and sponged with Pink Pirouette.
I paper pieced the little boots (are they not the sweetest!)
Ever cut your ribbon too short for a bow? I did, so I rescued it by just tying a half bow and letting the ends dangle. The Chocolate Chip Corduroy brad is yummy and adds just a little texture.
