Welcome the the team ladies I do hope you'll enjoy working with us.

 

I used one of my DT images from the fabulous Dewdrop Craftz, this one is called the Sorcerer and by the artist CupuDOTexe.

She is coloured with distress inks (I'm still finding my Copics are not too happy with this heat and humidity). The papers are from Tim Holtz's Vintage Shabby and the edges distressed with the TH distressing tool.The flower is cut with vellum and I used pearls and a brad from my stash.
