Pippi Locksocks

I've been playing with my new Sugar Nellie stamps, and decided to decorate a gift bag with this 'girl with attitude'!!

I love her 'don't mess with me' poise!

Last time I coloured her in similar colours with my DI reinkers, so today I've used my Copics for a change.

I'm not sure which version I prefer;  the DI's make it a much softer look, but these colours are really vibrant.  Either way, she's a cutie, and great for any occasion.

Hope you like her.



Here's a close up of the image:





I typed a sentiment onto card, and then cut it out using a Magnolia tag die, and tied it onto the bag's handles with 2 colours of embroidery thread.
