Calling all Shoppaholics!

This card would be perfect for most of my friends as we are all shoppaholics, whether it be craft supplies (in my case) or clothes! I am loving Elzybells images, they are so easy to use and colour, yet I think still retain that wow factor!

I have paper pieced the dress on this image and coloured the rest with my whispers and watercolour pencils. DP is form DCWV christmas stack, brown CS has been embossed with spots and dots folder. Legless brads are from craft work cards and the sentiment from SU Best Yet set which I got from the wonderful Jules!

Sorry about the colour of this picture, it looks much brighter and better in the flesh!

Although I've been at work today I've still been able to enjoy the sunshine, thats the beauty of being a district nurse, I get to be out and about all day! Not so good in winter though! :-)

Hope you are all well!

Hugs, Vicky x
