    Wow that looks amazing and so worthwhile of the 3 hours!!! absolutly beautiful card. Can I ask what pens you have used?

    (you will have a PM in a few mins ... posty has been)

    Big thankyou to you for the stamps ... DS is desperate to have a play with them, and thankyou for the blocks and rocker aswell ;) xxx

    Hi rusty. I've used copics (red, black, and blush on cheeks). The pink and gold are glitter gel pens, and I've used a sakura stardust pen to try to highlight the hair. The picture's not very good (camera appears to be dead :(), there's actually a fair bit of DT used to give it depth.
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Jailhousebabe - the copics look fab!!
    Rusty - if you want any more I've got quite a few - I think there was 6 sheets of each design in the pack, I'll never use them all!
