CC181 -- True Friend

Photo Details

Poster: MakiJ

This is for Color Combination Challenge 181.
I love the combination and I'm so happy to have a time to play!

I colored the image with the reinkers and watercolor brush. I added the little pearls on the flowers.
The center panel was stamped Baroque Motifs with very vanilla craft (you probably can't see from the photo) and creamy cocoa.
The background was adhered the designer papers.
I used Copic multi liner for the black stitches.
