Skin - E0000, E000, E00 and R01 for her cheeks

Pinks - R81 and R0000 I used the tip to tip method here to get a little extra shading
Yellows - Y19, Y11 and Y00

All the colours I used were mostly in the low numbers to get the pastel look.
The gorgeous DP is from Nitwit Collections called Bonnets & Bowties and is also digital.
Corner Dies are from Nellies, Flowers are from WOC and the lace that has been threaded with blue ribbon are from my stash.

This is a bowl of skittles for inspiration, but you can use any bright colour you like, this crazy theme was chosen by me! So lets see all those bedazzling creations.
This month I have used one of the adorable Whimsy Wee Stamps available at Bizzy Bec's online store, this is Peggy , and she is just one of the new collection available, and they are all 15% off .
I have coloured her with copic's and prisma pencils

The DP is from Kaisercraft,  SB Circles for the die cutting, and the little flowers are punched out and I think it's called a retro flower. The pearls are from my stash.
