Hi everyone, a card today for Friday Sketchers and a really great sketch by Carole, Cute Card Thursday with a challenge of 'Lilac', OCC and a challenge of 'Snowmen or snowflakes', Arty Girlz where the challenge is 'favourite colours' and finally Stamp Something with a challenge to include some black in your card. Once again lots of lovely challenges to combine!I've used my gorgeous 'Mimi and Snowman' stamp designed by the incredibly talented Janet Roberts at Pink Gem Designs. Janet's new stamps are all so gorgeous, stamp beautifully and are wonderful to colour. I water coloured my image with distress inks, distressed the edges, stamped the sentiment and snowflake and then mounted on black card over the various layers of Lilac/violet bazzil card. Everything is mounted on a violet card blank which I scored for some texture and to finish I did some doodling and added the gem and fibre. TFL.
Back soon,
Chris
