Hannah Lynn - Forever Rose

Well this card has been waiting to post on my blog for days.  Unfortunately my next instalment at the dentist on Monday didn't go well.  It was awful.  I have to go back this coming Monday for my stitches to come out.  Then I'll be back 3-4 weeks after that, giving my mouth time to heal in the meantime, for the next instalment.  It's then he'll make a decision about whether I need referral to the hospital for surgery.  I've had surgery in 2011 and 2012 to two teeth next door to one another and ironically this is the next one along.  It's not a common procedure to have so to have it twice isn't good.  What would a third time be?  Fingers crossed we don't need it.

Here is a card I have made using a Crafts and Me digital stamp by Hannah Lynn called "Forever Rose".  She is certainly a beauty.  I have coloured her face/hair with my new Graph'It pens - I'm in love!!!  Especially in love as I bought some of the interchangeable brush nibs that I've put on the skin colours - these brushes are amazingggggggg.  For my skin I have used 4155, 4150 and 4115.

For my hair I have used 1270 and 2120.

For the red colour I didn't have any red Graph'It's so I have used a Burgundy and Crimson Promarker.

The backing papers I was given.  The rose backing paper is gorgeous as it's flocked.

I've finished the card off with a Marianne Dsigns corner die-cut, die-cut buttons, lace, ribbon bow, Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment and some roses (these are a burgundy colour but for some reason with the flash look a lot lighter).
