There goes that shoe again!


I just love this image which I bought yesterday from Chris Dark of Sketching Stamper Digi stamps.
I still can't colour it as well as she does.. maybe I could do with a few lessons. I used some Derwent Inktense pencils and a water brush to do the colouring. I really like them, but haven't totally mastered the technique just yet.
I used the sketch from Truly Scrumptious for this card but transposed it as I felt that the image worked better on the right-hand side of the card.
I think that this shoe will be getting quite a few more outings!
Welcome drop of rain last night, but I hope it will be fine for the rest of the weekend for Daisy's 1st birthday celebrations!
