I was just in the mood for a challenge-fest today as the weather has scuppered other plans (visiting a friend for hot chocolate and a natter) so I've stayed home, had the hot chocolate and had a little play. However, I spent so long on this one card that I'll just have to have another play tomorrow. Shame!
I'd like to enter this one for three challenges:
Sketch Saturday No 85
ABC Challenge L is for Layering and
Cute Card Thursday All New
It's another fabulous Sketch Saturday sketch this week
and it gave me ample opportunity to use loads of layers, a la ABC, and lots of new stuff for CCT!
I've used my new Greeting Farm "Library Mouse" stamp from Bunny-Zoe's Crafts (thanks Nikki), and my new Martha Stewart lattice corner punch and new packet of pink pearls. Papers are a mix of DCWV and Papermania. Image coloured with Copics and ProMarkers. Flowers punched with small and medium Woodware punches.
I know the mouse is better suited to male cards, but I think he works just as well with a pile of "chick lit" in his arms!
And finally, I leave you with an update on the snow .... it's been pretty constant since mid morning and quite heavy. I reckon we've had at least another inch and a half just today.
Brrrrrr. Now going to join my little furry fella (and I do mean the cat) in the armchair with a cuppa and my book for a little while before I think about dinner.
Hugs, Squirrel xxx
