THE SUGAR BOWL CHALLENGE NO. 13




Hello everyone, hope you are all well. I am slowly starting to get back on track, but still little steps at the moment. So for now, I have one post, and this is a card for The Sugar Bowl Challenge No. 13 - another great Sketch from Lilian, but with a colour option - "kraft", and if you don't have Kraft to hand, browns and creams. Well to tell you the truth, I have never heard of Kraft, so I stuck with the browns and creams. I have used one of Sugar Nellies new stamps from Leanne Ellis called Patience, and she has been coloured with Sukura Gel Pens. I stamped the image again on Eclipse tape to make a mask of the image, and then covered the girl, and filled the background with chalks. The image was cut to the borders of the image, and layered on cream and brown card. The backing papers are from a Basic Grey paper pad called Granola, another fav of mine at the moment. The card has been finished off with a stamped sentiment, a strip of cream ribbon, a paper flower with gem brad, and some gold gems, all from my craft stash. Many thanks for dropping by, and hope you have a lovely day! Happy Crafting!
