Tag You're It - 47 - Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend

Ooops - just noticed I put an extra A in Diamonds - back to the drawing board.

Not my usual style at all - so a real challenge for me, but nevertheless thoroughly enjoyable. The most difficult part was photographing it (bling does not photgraph well!!)
Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend is the theme for
Tag You're It this week. The image is one that Tara sent me (I think - if not ooops sorry!!) I coloured her with watercolours, replaced the gift parcel she was sitting on with a champagne glass (Magnolia). I had some 'blingy fabric which I cut and fastened to her dress. I gave her a diamond necklace, bracelet and a string of diamonds to hold. I finished the edges with some white & silver edging strip (ancient), diamontes and a silver flower and bow at the top. I computer generated the sentiment onto printable acetate and anchored it under the edging.

Material
Bp - Pink Petticoat : Image - Tara : Rowney watercolours : Rest from stash
