Can my Grandma be improved? Completed

Hi,
You all do a wonderful job - I love popping in and looking at what you do.
Now I need help with my grandma - she seems a bit grubby!!!

Hi Shakel

Wow, what a doll!!!  :o :o  A bet your Great Grandmother was proud to show off this beautiful little moppet!  :D :D  Hope this is okay.  Would you like a coloured version?

Oh my Gosh!!!! Thank you Caroline - that is fantastic!!!
Yes, she was gorgeous - not only in looks, she was one of the most beautiful souls I have known . Sometimes we can be lucky to cross paths with such people.
Thank you again - I love it.

Hi Shakel

I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist as I couldn't bear to see this beautilful woman "grubby".  ::)

One as close to original as possible and one slightly enhanced!
