LOADS of Love..........

          So I decided to ink up this little baby..... her name is Washboard Ellie and she is available over at The Paper Nest store....... pick her up here! Isn't she ridiculously amazing??? I really enjoyed inking her up. I have a mild addiction to polka dots and with her hair tied up in the wrap reminds of back in the day when the pin-up girls would use handkerchiefs in their hair...... too cute.... =)


          The copic markers I used were for the skin: E000, E00, E11 and R20. Her hair is done with E50, E51 and E53. Her hair wrap and shirt are done in R37, R39 and R89. The rest was coloured in N0, N1, N3, N5, BG000, BG01, B18, B24, G28, E41, E42, E74 and E77. I added the polka dots with a Signa Uniball white gel pen. I also added bubbles with pearl accents.


          Gina K, of course, supplied the 5.5X5.5" card back in Kraft. I lined the Avelon patterned paper in black card stock and stitched it up with the sewing machine. I made the sentiment in Photoshop and added red ribbon to tie it together..... I absolutely love it.... hope you enjoy.... xo
