A Spoon Full of Sugar -challenge 15

Thank you to all who took part in last weeks 'anything but a card' challenge, there were certainly lots of fabulous ideas and things that I want to have a go at!
This week A Spoon Full of Sugar challenge is to use a sketch designed by our fellow team member Nikki it's a fabulous sketch to work with, so much so that I made 2 cards straight away, but am only showing 1 now!I made a nice bright card for this challenge, and used my very pretty Sweet Art Ebony stamp from Sugar Nellies. I coloured the image using a mixture of watercolour pencils and pearl paints to add a pretty shimmer to her outfit. Finished off with a variety of coloured buttons, flowers and a pretty blue organza bow.
The very generous Bryony from Silly Monkey Crafts has donated this weeks prize which is all blue and christmassy and really looks lovely, so nip over (link on the right) make us a card, remember you can now use ANY stamps, and you could be the lucky winner who will be chosen at random in a weeks time.

We hope you will join us in welcoming Sonja to the deisgn team ( http://flatis-bastelleien.blogspot.com/ ) take a look at her beautiful work using the link.

Look forward to seeing your cards.
