I have added a bit to the first one - some liquid pearls for the spots on the toadstools and the little girl's hair-band, and some litter flocking powder on the bunny and the little lady's skirt. I've had the flocking powder in my drawer for years, so it was good to at last be able to use it for something!
For the second card, I just added a hat pin, some ribbon to the handbag, and used some clear varnish on some of the objects to give them more shine.
Tomorrow I shall be back with the latest episode of Cissie's travels, and - I hope - something for Paint Party Friday. Have a good day, take care, and thanks for coming by!
Gorgeous, girly cards, rather different to your usual grungy stuff, but very pretty! Hugs, Sarah
