I also bought this digital stamp, called 'Alice' by Sylvie's Designs from Stitchy Bear Stamps as I thought it was gorgeous and it is so 1950s. This was my second attempt at colouring her. The first was disastrous. I coloured it all in nicely and just needed to do her lippy! I got my fine brush Copic R46 pen out and began but my hand slipped, grrr..... aagghhh, and she got lipstick on her teeth. So I decided to try and whiten her teeth. I did the worst thing possible and panicked. Grabbed my White Souffle Sakura Gel Pen to restore her dentures and shock horror, I'd grabbed my Glitter Pen by mistake!!!! So then she looked like she had a silver tooth glistening, which might be quite cool but I couldn't live with it - poor girl looked manic! So I started again! Looking back it was quite funny!

Oh Sue I wish you could see me I'm laughing so much! Your post is so funny mainly because we have all done things like that but I can't stop thinking of that 'Goldie' man off the TV with all the gold sparkly teeth!
You card is super fab, luuuurve that stamp and the colours you have put together are perfect especially the sparkly dress. Well done on another gorgeous card, we've come on a lot together since we started this blogging!

I do feel for you, messing it up at the very last second - so annoying. I am sure your daughter will love her card and it will speed her recovery. If you do have a go at those water colours, have fun. Thank you so much for your lovely comment on my blog this week. It does mean so much.
Hi Sue, you did make me chuckle! I think she looked quite fetching with a silver sparkle! We've all been there, you are not alone! Fab card - love that image! Hugs, Teresa x

Absolutely gorgeous Sue! Love the colours and the fab image! I too have made similar colouring errors and had to start again, it's so nice to hear I'm not alone!
Hi Sue,
It's been 2 weeks since your last post, i hope everything is ok.

A very beautiful card! I´m sure it will make the receiver feel better.

LOL; thanks for sharing your story; hilarious. We all mess up from time to time; it's so frustrating when you spent a great deal of time coloring and image and the error happens right at the end. Anyway, gorgeous creation and awesome job on her dress!
Take care,
S.
