This uses an oldie SCACD stamp from many years ago - coloured with watercolour pencils and clear gloss added to her eyes, lips, phone and shoes. I partially embossed down the side with my flowery folder which (along with the daisy die) was a magazine freebie.
- The photo over at PinSpiration Challenge #228 inspired my retro image and colour theme
- Layout from Freshly Made Sketches #363
- Retro Rubber challenge #99 - anything goes

Your coloring is super! I like the layout of this card, too, with the wee bit of embossing behind your central panel. I do remember those days with one telephone for the whole family (of 8 people!) and getting yelled at when I talked too long. Sometimes I wish we could go back to the days when you couldn't be reached if you weren't home.
Such a fun image and beautiful coloured with your pencils Lynne! Your sweet girl looks like she's having a fun conversation on that retro phone. Great design. Love the partial dry embossing to add some extra dimension and texture. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
This is GREAT Lynn!! I do remember phones LOL your perfectly colored card is a fun reminder of days gone by!
Yes I sure remember those days with being told to get off the phone.
Your card is so pretty and what a fun image, which is beautifully coloured. The daisy die cut is a lovely touch and loving that delicate embossing folder. Thank you for joining in the CAS mix up with your fun and fabulous card X
Such a brilliant card Lynne. Yep, I remember those days. Our first phone, in the 70s was mustard in colour and we shared a party line with our neighbours!! xx
Yes I remember those days, sadly so do my parents, who remind me all the time of my constant chatting on the phone days! Love this image, it a lot of fun, the daisy is a fun addition too. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber this time. Claire DT
