We have a great challenge this week over at the High Hopes blog and Ila is asking us to get creative with our borders. I have used this fabulous sketch by Claudia over at Friday Sketchers - thanks Claudia! I used my SU Scallop punch for the border of my card. I also used some doodlebug paper frills as the main strip on the sketch and also for the grass. The cutesy papers are by Imaginisce and is from their "For Peeps Sake" collection. The adorable image is She-Baa Sheep with her little Easter Basket. The Egg-stra Special sentiment is also High Hopes. I have stamped and cut the sentiment out using the SU Word Window punch. Other punches used are SU Photo Corner punch. The paper is glittered so I added some more stickles to my images too. All images coloured with Prismacolour Pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend.
Check out the challenge blog to admire all the gorgeous cards from my team members this week. Don't forget that also each week you have the chance of winning a great stamp prize for taking part!
I received the above award from Sarah-Jane. Thank you so much sweetie!

Nikki this is just adorable!!! I love the border punch and the way the sheep and Easter basket are outside your circle!! Such a great idea! But the sentiment idea is fantastic!! I really need to get that punch! Of course your coloring is just amazing!!! Congrats on your award as well! You are so sweet and certainly deserve these awards!
