I am so fed up working full time. I still have to get through Friday, Saturday and Monday before I get a morning off and even then I have to do housework before we disappear under a pile of dog hair. My Labrador is very considerately casting and she is a very big dog lol!!
I used the lovely sketch from the Penny Black Saturday Challenge to make this card. I coloured the cute Penny Black image with Promarkers. I was inspired to use these colours of Basic Grey wisteria papers by the photo on the Basic Grey challenge. I added some faux stitching and some faux lace - I used paper lace. The flowers were cut out from scraps of the DP using Martha Stewart punches. Brads were added to two of the flowers and a button to the other. I used a tag punch for the sentiment.Ribbon, brads and button are from my stash.
I hope to enter a few challenges with this card!
Basic Grey:- Inspiration from photo - inspired by the colours in the photo.

Passion for Promarkers:- Polka dots and any colours.

Beautiful card Kat, they get better and better each time I visit. I know through blogging my card's have come on load's. I would love to show you a earlier day's as a card maker one but am too embarressed.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't talk to me about dog hair, my Kip is a tiny little thing and her hair is short, but my goodness you would think she should be bald with all the hair I hoover and sweep up...lol
Have a nice weekend even though you are working. I will send you an email soon.

Fabulous card. Your papers are gorgeous and you've used the recipe so well. I'm so with you on the 'fed up working' front. Oh for a part-time job with the same wages, eh? Or better still time to just craft. Bliss! (in my dreams and yours too).
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us at the Creative Card Crew Challenge.
