  • curtains - G02, G05, G07, B99
  • background - BG000, 0
The sentiment was stamped in Nautical Blue Memento ink.
I have of course drawn inspiration for the colouring from the wonderful Alyce at Kit and Clowder and her Kit and Clowder Monthly Colouring Classes. I also draw inspiration from the La-La Land Crafts blog.
