Yup; it’s been almost exactly a year since Willow last saw ink, so I thought it was time to take her out of storage and dust her off… 
She’s so much fun to color. I love her long flowing hair and dress…
Also love these papers and the beautiful lace I bought in Sweden. It breaks my heart every time I need to cut into it though.
