Fed Up Working!

Thursday evening.

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!

Sugar Bowl Challenge

This is my first attempt at a challenge for The Sugar Bowl, using Lilian's lovely sketch. I stamped and water coloured Flower Girl, one of my favourite Gorjuss Girls. I didn't have any "kraft" so I have used browns in the card. I chalked round the edges of the image with green and used a scalloped long rectangular Nestability to cut out a brown mat for it. The papers are Basic Grey Motifica. I made the flower using the papers and brown card. The ribbon and brad are from my stash.
