We went away for mid-term break to visit family and friends... we had a lovely time, it's great to catch up with friends I haven't seen for a while...
Anyway, it will be a quick post today, as it seems I haven't only brought happy memories from my time away... I've brought the worst of the colds (or flu, never know the difference...).
I also want to let you all know that Scribble and Scrap Crafts is having a
SALE!!!!
Full information can be found on the blog at http://scribbleandscrapcrafts.blogspot.co.uk/2014/02/scribble-and-scrap-sale.html
So today's card, I decided to make a 1st birthday card for a Baby Girl...
This time I used this card sketch from Fussy and Fancy challenge. So many nice layers, I had to try it!!!
For the vertical layer, I used striped paper and a punched border.
I used a paper doily for the circle layer, and wide ribbon for the horizontal layer.
I used:
Digital stamp "Walker" by Mo Manning (I really wanted to used this image again... I've just used it once before I started blogging, isn't she cute?
Papers: small polka dots and stripe papers are freebies from craft magazine; Snippets collection by Studio Calico (yellow checked paper) and a small scrap of paper from First Edition Love Letters (pink polka dots behind sentiment)
I hand-stitched the background paper and image with white thread.
Promarkers I used:
Sandstone, Buttercup, Eggnogg
Vanilla, Almond
Pink Carnation, Blossom, Pink Mittens
Mustard
The flowers and pearls are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
Buttons, charm, heart rhinestone (on top of charm), bow, ribbon and washi tape are from local shops.
I created the sentiment on my computer and put it on top of a circle die-cut.
I'm entering this card into the following challenges (in alphabetical order)
