Addicted to Stamps

As the theme this time on Addicted to Stamps is 'anything goes' I decided to show this card which should fit the bill.  The image from Polkadoodle is one I'd stamped a while ago which came to the surface during my tidy up and hadn't been coloured. I used Coloursoft pencils and then added a bit of glitter to her glasses and the spots on the toadstool.  Various oddments of paper were gathered together and combined along with some paper clay roses (coloured with Distress marker to match) and a couple of stamped and cut out butterflies.  These had been made ages ago when I acquired the stamp set from Clearly Besotted and were lurking in a little plastic box just waiting to be rediscovered!

    Your rediscoveries are being put to good use & I do like the way that the butterflies echo her hair ribbon.
