Hello everyone!
I had planned to post a new project earlier in the week but things went a bit pear shaped and I managed to stuff up the card, two thirds of the way through!! Grrr!!
So I took a craft break and had another play with the Christmas present my dear husband bought me

Heston Blumenthal's Smart Scoop Ice cream maker
SUPPLIES
Pippi Longsocks by Sugar Nellie

Ribbon and dies from stash
and of course oodles of Copics!
and made myself a batch of "Smurf" ice cream

Once I'd sampled the newly made dessert, which definitely gets ♥♥♥♥♥ I located my crafting mojo that had been hiding in shame and I set to re-colouring the image & making a new card

Hey, lets play "spot the difference" - what's different between Pippi above and as she appears on the card?
The image above was scanned, whereas the card was photographed, hence the disparity in colours, I assure you it's the same image but can you spot which bit I tweaked????
see bottom of post for the answer

Well, if that's what Smurf ice cream does for you, sign me up. This card is wonderful and I love the colouring of this whimsical image. Great choice of background papers. The ribbon and flourishes add such wonderful movement to your card...like she's only here for a moment before she flies off. Thanks for joining our Anything Goes/Ribbons and Pearls challenge this fortnight at Craftitude. I hope we see you again soon.
