Sunflower Love!

Hello lovely people.  I hope you are getting to enjoy some of the lovely weather we have been having in the UK!  

I have not been crafting or on the internet much over the last week.  

We have been off out and about and had a lovely time.

I have managed to do some colouring in the evenings and would like to share this cute image from Coloriage Wild.  The image is coloured with pencils, with touches of white gel detail.  

The background is various distress inks and a spot stencil.  

I am pleased with the shaby/chic look created.
