I've not had a busy day making cards today! I don't know where the time went.....I think I was catching up on blogs this afternoon and then my daughter phoned. So I didn't start making this card till after teatime. I think I can enter a few challenges with it though so that is always something. All in all I haven't had a very productive weekend. At least I am not out any evening next week ....as far as I know!!
I used the great sketch from Whimsy. It's a great sketch, easy to use but effective and you can dress it up a bit. I used a House Mouse image and on the House Mouse challengeyou have to have an aperture. Try as I might I can not get a photo to show that House Mouse is behind an aperture. I cut out the red frame using a scalloped nestie and a plain one and put it on top of the image with tiny sticky pads. On the photo it just looks as if I've layered the image on a piece of red card! So I hope you can take my word for it. The image has been coloured with Promarkers so it fits the Passion for Promarkers challenge for animals. I think it is cute and fuzzy to fit the Stamp Something. At least I think it is! Last of all Bizzy Becs Creatalicious challenges wants you to use only scraps of DP and add handmade flowers. Well I certainly used scraps of DP on this card. I've made a few cards with these papers so I have lots of scraps and fortunately I had some that were big enough for this card!! I have text on this card so it fits the challenge for Saturday Spotlight and One Stop Craft.
I used:-
Nesties, Martha Stewart punches, EK success punch and another punch. MME wonderful winter DP - lovely and glittery. Brads and jewel from stash.
I think that's about it. As usual I have left it a bit late to do my ironing LOL! Maybe I'll just do the things I need for tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteOoh gorgeous card hun! I love these papers too, used them this weekend but can't put my card on my blog for another couple of days. Finally had a go with my sewing machine today - eek, took me about 2hrs just to work out how to thread it and I'm still not sure if I've got it set up properly lol! Hope your daughter is doing ok xx
