Made this above on Sunday as I was given a bag full of lemons from a neighbour earlier in the week, doesn't look quite the same and as you can see my poor deprived DH cut a slither before I got chance to take the photo lol! Made extra Lemon Curd for him to put on his toast for breakfast! Been a while since my lot fought over cake, they had this one divided equally between them lol!
Hi all, hope you are all keeping well, all good here apart from the cold bug.

Hi all, Hope you and your families are all well.
Today for my inspiration I have used the gorgeous Royal from Some Odd Girl available from the store here, she comes with a crown, sentiment and banner stamp all of which I have used.
I had a lots of fun creating this card, tried a few new things to me, including lots of pearls and flowers.
I stamped Royal using Lulu Lavender Memento, then I outlined her dress with my new Multiliner 0.3 PURPLE (a wonderful gift from a lovely friend, thankyou). I thought it would be fun to have pink hair with added pearls (like those fancy pins you get for your hair), I slit her hair to place the crown coloured with spicas and added special effects. I also used the sepia multiliner to outline some of the face and black multiliner to the eyes and lashes (which were a fiddle to cut round lol). Sprayed her with Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer mist. Added pearls to the birds and flowers.
The banner was stamped with Lulu Lavender Momento ink and black memento for the sentiment.
One of my first tries at crocheting a flower, the pearl flower and butterfly are made using a template.
Skin/Face - E000, E00, E01, E11, R20, E33, E37, multi liner Black and Sepia, Spica Lavender
Hair - RV10, RV11, RV13, RV14
Dress - V01, V12, V15, V17 and the new multiliner Purple (part of the brights set available here)
AND the colourless blender for correction and to blend out some of the colour in the dress and hair
BV08 and RV14 to colour some of the cream half pearls to match.
