I made this for the teapotter's challenge anything Victorian. My cousin had sent me this image with the old fashion looking perfume bottles, so I thought that would be perfect. I colored it with spectrum noir alcohol markers. Then I went over the pearls with liquid pearls. The lattice is actually a gold, shimmery vellum, but it doesn't show well in the picture. Last I cut out the hat and hat stand from a Victorian paper pack, added some ribbon and mounted it with foam tape.
Thanks for looking!

That is such a perfect card for the tea-party. And oh my, the pearls are just wonderful - it looks like a real string of tiny pearls. I love the colours you have used, the perfume bottles are so beautiful.

What a girly-girl card! I love this image - brand new to me, but perfect for this theme (and beautifully colored I might add). Your die-cuts do add quite a Victorian air to the scene. Love that lattice panel - I'm sure by your description even more beautiful IRL. Your pearls bring this all home, I feel as though I have a glimpse into a Victorian boudoir! Rheannon wil love this! Thank you so much for coming to her Teaparty...and make sure to get some of those delicate cookies, I just put out a fresh batch! Hugs from NJ.
