love it and not so sure........

I found this sketch looking back on a site I found after being on Linda's blog.
Just Birthday and Christmas cards.
They put a sketch on each week and you make both a Birthday and Xmas card from same sketch.
They have done 3 sketches and this was #1.

I am half way through trying their other two sketches....just waiting on glue drying.

This one is made with my first bits of basic grey from the Eva range,
and the last of my mate Briony's home dyed material.
She is so clever and uses the material for quilting!

Tilda is from an image swap.


It is the most beautiful purple, with bits of cerise in it.
I almost didn't want to use it up !

I am happier with the colouring on from the whisper pens using the blending pen.
And I might change the sentiment in between the buttons.

This one.....*sigh* I bought a cuttle bug embossing folder a wee while back
and this is the first time I have used it.



I used wee drops of two different blue inks to highlight parts of it,
I liked how it ended up, and then I managed to smudge ink on the edge of it.....
so I decided to trim it so it was not wasted.
But now.....I really don't think I like it very much.
I put some navy ribbon behind it....and thought I might use it for the Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge that is blue, white and a few snowflakes....


but I think I will have another go at this one.
