Oh have I struggled with this card. Not I hasten to add anything to do with Donalda's wonderful sketch for this week's WOJ which was an absolute dream to do - more to do with a serious bout of 'Wishy Washiness' that overcame me. I couldn't make my mind up what papers or image to use. Probably too much choice!! I still think I chose the wrong image for this card but there it is - I'm not going round again.
The image, coloured with pastels, looked a little bleak so a stamped a scrolled edge that looks a totally different blue in the photograph - but isn't.
