Sketch N Stash New Challenge


It's back to work for me today, boo hoo, although we did have a lovely Christmas - I am glad all the organising and preparation is over - it can be nuts at times!  Just got to put away all the Christmas decorations and that's it for another year! It's nice to get back to making ordinary cards, and this one is for the new challenge that starts today over at Sketch N Stash. and as we're being sponsored by The Stamp Fairy, the DT got to choose an image to use - lucky us!
I chose this little cutie, Nellie from the Nellie and Leo Love set - you can find it here in The Stamp Fairy Store.
The optional theme for this challenge is No Design Papers, which I only realised after I had picked out my papers from some yummy new papers that best matey, Lesley, had given to me for Christmas! So I had to have a rethink, and used an embossing folder for the background mat, and then a Spellbinder Marvelous Square for to cut out the image.
I then added some fab new heart die cuts from Impression Obsession to my bow and a little Stampin Up sentiment, together with some flowers and pearls. 
You could win a fab $10 voucher to spend with The Stamp Fairy so I hope you will play along with us over the next week (we have a short challenge this time around).


You can check out the gorgeous makes of my DT buddies here, and I promise to try and get my blogging back up to speed for  2014!
