I masked her and ink dusted the background to look like sky and hilly fields.... and I have to say a big Thank You to Jo who very kindly sent me some picket fences.... thanks hun they are just perfect! I am finally getting the hang of the Viva Pearl Pen... after quite a bit of practice... LOL and so I have added some decoration to the fences... I loved using these new Memory Box dies and also the Leaf which is from a set by Marianne Designs (see below for link) - I LOVE these leaves SO much - they are such a nice size!! I've coloured the Hibiscus Flower and Honey Blossom Sprig with Promarkers and added some Ultra Fine Glitter to Sprig.

Love your pretty card hun, gorgeous dies and colours. They take a bit of practise those pens, and I think I have just about got the knack myself! :) They are good tho!
Noisy neighbours, I cant imagine how awful that is. We are lucky living in the highlands, as there are just cows and sheep near us, but I suspect that we would be neighbours from hell from time to time! LOL ;)
