FRIDAY SKETCHERS 79

What a lovely sketch to follow this week over on Friday Sketchers. I used a new stamp I bought from the Hobbycraft Show NEC made by Stampavie called Bear with Robin, coloured it in with copics, added white glitter for detail and cut out with my square nestie. I used light blue card from my stash for mounting and the dp is from Imaginisce called Polar Expressions - Comfy Cozy. The sentiment is from Craftworkcards.co.uk and is mounted onto the same dp and backing card used and cut out with my plain and scalloped oval punch from SU. The ribbon is from Hobbycraft, the snowflakes are from Craftime, the large blue flower is from Imaginisce Bitty Blossoms and the rose is from Wildorchidcrafts.

The Sunny Day Simply Scrappin Kit

I chose to do a Happy New Year card using my Magnolia Tilda, glass and sentiment from the Magnolia New Year 2008 collection and coloured them in with copics. I masked Tilda so she was sitting on the glass and cut both her and the sentiment with my very long rectangle nesties.

For the dp I used plain red card from my stash and the same reversable design paper from SU called Ski Slope. For the scalloped edging I used my SU scallop shaped punch. The ribbon is from craftyribbons which I bought from the NEC craft show.
