THE SUGAR BOWL CHALLENGE NO. 17


My second card is for The Sugar Bowl Challenge No. 17 - a wonderful Sketch from Judy, with an inclusion of Handmade Flowers. I have used one of my fav Sugar Nellie stamps from the Gorjuss Girls Collection, and she has been coloured with Sakura Gel Pens. The image has been cut out, and layered on pink and black card. The pink card has been run through a Cuttlebug "Swiss Dots" Embossing Folder, and the backing papers are from a Basic Grey paper pad called Bittersweet. The handmade flowers have been made using circles cut from my nesties, from the Bittersweet papers, and the edges distressed with a Tim Holtz Distressing Tool, and finished off with some gem brads in their centres. The card has then been finished off with a stamped sentiment, some pink spotty ribbon, and a few pink gems.
