Colour me sepia!...

Morning all...

I can hardly believe it is 1st November!

It does n't seem like two minutes since I was enjoying the sunshine on my gorgeous summer Holibobs!

Now we are thinking of warm fires and the 'C' word!

I am whooshing by again today with a mid-way reminder for gorgeous 
which is to make a card with one colour
(except for fur/hair/skin)

All the details are
I went all experimental for this card and decided to have a go at colouring with my beloved Copics on parchment paper.  I LOVED it!  The paper suited the sepia colour tones perfectly, and it really soaks up the ink, which if you are a messy one like me is really useful!

Here I have coloured my first LOTV image in a long while and used the gorgeous digi stamp
Christmas Flowers

I went for a simple layout using some discontinued LOTV papers and a bit of cheesecloth, twine and a charm.

Finally I added some snow...

Sweeeeeeet!

    This is spectacular, Sue! I love the monotone sepia tones with that bit of cheesecloth (genius!) and little charm! The texture of that white snow fall over it all is icing on the cake!! Hugs, Darnell
