We have a fantastic sketch for you to follow this week over at the Scrapmagasinet DT blog. I just love all the layering on Heather's sketches. Be sure to come on over and visit us. Every challenge Lisbet, owner of Scrapmagasinet has a great prize for one lucky player.On my card today I have used an image from the digital set My Furriest Friends. If you prefer your rubber I have a set on a special pre-order now which includes this fun stamp.
My image is coloured with a mixture of copics and prismacolour pencils with sansodor and paper stumps to blend. Most of the papers are from the new Basic Grey Lemonade paper pad. I have added Jute ribbon and pom pom ribbon for added texture. The flowers are Prima Hydrangea's and I have added sparkly pink brads. The sentiment is High Hopes and is part of the sentiment Hugs and Hugs.
Ok, now I have some fantastic news! Most of you know that my husband Gary was made redundant at the beginning of May. Well we got news last night that he is to start work with a new company soon. This is such a relief for our family.
I would like to apologise to my friends for not visiting your blogs at the moment. The girls are on their school holidays until early September so I am limited to my computer time. I will be back visiting my favourite blogs real soon.
Hugs,
