Molly

I am loving these Visible Image stamps - and Molly is so like my younger daughter!!  Most of her Barbie dolls are headless!!!  I coloured her using my pens and then created a stippled background.  I went for quite muted papers and backed them onto dark cardstock.  I die cut the flowers and attached brads to their centres.  I added some lace and thin satin ribon, and a bow, charm and button.  Finally a swirl and the sentiment which I stamped directly onto the dp.

Supplies
Sentiment: Kraftin Kimmie Wednesday
Colouring medium: promarkers 
Skin: coral,sunkissed pink, blush, ivory, pastel pink 
Hair: aubergine, purple, orchid, lavendar
 Clothes:aubergine, purple, orchid, lavendar, cool grey 1-5, black
 Papers: MME Fiddlesticks
