Papers: Kaisercraft - 'Tropicana'
Brass Compass Charm: Bunny Zoes
Viva Pearl Pen for pearls in chest....
I fussy cut the image and added a border and some flowers from the Tropicana pad... and then finally the brass compass charm to finish off...
I coloured the image with Copics and Promarkers... used a Viva Pearl Pen for the little pearls...
Hope you can pop over to Heck of a Challenge and see the gorgeous creations made by the rest of the fab Team!!!
I would like to enter the following challenges:-
Simon Says - 'Anything Goes'
QKR Stampede - 'Anything Goes'

Ooh I'm SO mad at Blogger!!!!!! I've just come on late Sunday evening to Schedule this post and it was all done in draft and ready to go... I just went to change a couple of words and the whole ***** post vanished!!!.... really don't understand how it happened and why I couldn't get it back with undo or not saving and then logging back in again...Grrrr!!! and I'm SO tired.... :-(
I had to start the post again right from scratch... "eye roll"
I did it very quickly and so hope it looks ok !!
it's been very strange weather today... it's felt warm but there is also a chill in the air that gets right into your bones... and so the vest is back on..!!! LOL

Stunning colouring Sue, it's a fantastic little scene with the cut out border and the flowers, I admire your patience with the fiddly cutting out of the image.
