Duet (sisters) Stop in the name of love


©Magnolia Tilda Stamp - Stop in the name of love 
Stamped with Memento
Coloured with Promarkers
Hair hi-lighted with brushed ©Liquid Pearls Gold
Stash

Technique
Image was stamped on to a pad blank, then on to card (quickly)
in order to reverse, this can be done with a brayer, but mine
was too small
Hair:  was lightly brushed with Liquid pearls
left image hasn't caught the camera light, is the better example

Submitted

Tilda's Town - Challenge 152 Anything Goes

I tried several ways to lift the colour and hi-lights in the hair - then tried lightly brushing in the liquid peals,  the colour light has blocked the shine - which is a pity, but I will try this again.

Cute Card Thursday  -  Challenge 368 Bonny Blues

I have a grumble, at the time I purchased these beautiful precoloured images, plus some stamps - of course.  I also purchased the backing papers, which I thought would be suitable.  But yet again with an online purchased I came unstuck - that patterns were too large, hence I made my own.  I would have thought of all manufactures LoV would have been petite & in keeping with their images.
