I’m back from a lovely time at The Lakes, and even managed to get some of the last little bits of Christmas shopping done too. I have some photos but need to get them sorted out first (took loads lol).
So anyway, today I have a Mo Manning card – I bought this digi along with a few more when it was first released, how long ago was that?! And just got round to using it this morning.
Struggling with the light today, the red on her dressing gown is almost the identical colour to the paper but you wouldn’t think so grrr!
Coloured with Copics I used
Hair E29, 27, 25, 23, 50 and dark umber pencil
Skin: E11, 00, 000, R30
Nightie W3, 1, 0, 00
Dressing Gown: R59, 46, 27, 24, 14 and Tuscan red pencil
Gold: YR24, 21, 31, 30
Teddy: E33, 31, 30
The scrummy paper is from the Best Creations Merry Christmas Kit. Loaded with gloss and glitter, just perfect for Christmas! This and the lace is from Dies to Die For.
The snowflake started life off as a wooden one, so I heat embossed it with gold sparkle embossing powder (did the same to the metal corner so the golds matched) 
The seam binding and flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, I used a trellis rose, cherry blossoms and 15mm roses. The metal leaves I have had in my stash for years.
I have popped this card in my Etsy Shop
And now I am going to sort through that back bedroom and start wrapping presents (if I disappear for more than a month send in the search parties hahaha)

Gorgeous card Bev. Glad you enjoyed your time at the Lakes. I'm jealous - I did my midwifery training there and lived at the Cottage Hospital in Keswick when I was on the district. Fabulous memories! Christine x.
