I dug the Distress Markers out again yesterday (although I used the reinkers alongside the markers and prefer the finish of combining the two together, so I think that in future I will be using the markers to enhance the reinkers. I love the fine detail achieved with the markers, especially for creases/folds in clothes and the hair. The links to the products used are at the end of the post.
I coloured her with the following colours
Skin: Tattered Rose, Vintage Photo, Aged Mahogany
Hair: Antique Linen, Walnut Stain, Vintage Photo
Blouse and shoes: Spun Sugar, Victorian Velvet, Black Soot
Skirt: Peeled Paint, Black Soot
Flowers: Aged Mahogany, Peeled Paint
Grass: Forest Moss, Peeled Paint, Walnut Stain, Scattered Straw, Black Soot
Shading around Tilda: Tumbled Glass
I wish I could source the little chrysanths here in the UK, I picked these up when I was taken on an amazing craft shopping tour by three lovely people in the US earlier this year. Numptie here only picked up a few packs
And an angle shot
That’s all from me today

Hi Bev, gorgeous card (as usual) I have been an admirer of your lovely work for ages. I think your dogs are wonderful, but how do you manage with 6?? I have 4 dogs and boy, that's hard enough work!!!
