Sketch



Wow there were some lovely cards for last week's challenge!

This week it is Carol's turn to choose a theme for CD Sunday Challenge Blog and she has a sketch for us.




I really enjoyed making my DT card for this challenge and here it is.




The CD I have used is Kevin Wood's Treasured Teddies by Creative Crafting World.

The white background is embossed and matted onto plain lilac card. The lace backing paper from the CD is matted onto the same lilac card. I then cut around the teddy and added him to the lacy background. The greeting is a LOTV stamp on the lacy paper and embossed with gold WOW embossing powder and mounted onto the lilac card. The flowers are die cuts using scraps. The fern is a Marianne die and I added pearls to the flowers.

For details of how to enter visit CD Sunday Challenge Blog. It's easy really - just use a CD somewhere in your design and don't forget to let us know which one.

My fellow teamies have lots to show you so please visit their blogs and leave them some love.

Here is my make for this week.


I used a  backing paper from Joanna Sheen's The Card Makers Year CD matted and layered onto green card followed by silver mirri and then onto yellow.I wrapped two ribbons around the card and tied bows to one side. I then die cut some leafy swirls (Petite Vinery by Sue Wilson at Creative Expressions) from matching card and added lots of gems.

The main image is a Match-It flower fairy peel off which I then layered onto yellow and silver mirri card. 

Happy Easter everyone.

PS: I'm sorry I'm late posting but have had a bit of a set back in my recovery from the pneumonia I had at Christmas. I still haven't had a clear chest x-ray and have caught a chesty cough  over the last few days! I had my third chest x-ray since being in hospital this morning so fingers crossed! Hoping I get the results before Easter but it may not be ready in time.
