Sketch Saturday #16




Morning everyone

Well, it's another week at Sketch Saturday and time for another fabulous sketch by Jo, the DT cards are awesome and you will not fail to be inspired, hop over to the blog for all the details, hope you can join in this week, it is a real pleasure to visit you all.

Huge thanks to everyone who joined in last week, all your cards were amazing and congratulations to Jules who won the Sarah Kay stamp.
For my card this week I used one of my new stamps from Whiff of Joy called Melinda helping Angel. These stamps are just fabulous and a real pleasure to colour. I have added a sentiment as I have decided to give this card to my MUM for her birthday...I can show you all because she doesn't read my blog....she doesn't even have a computer lol!!!!

I have also had to take another photo which now shows the glittery wings a bit better.
Here are the details
  • Image: Melinda helping angel from WOJ
  • Medium: Promarkers
  • Paper: K&Co
  • Flowers, brads, and gems from stash

Well, its a girls day today...my DH and DS are off to the football and my DD insists we go to town to buy a Barbie, with lights and sounds....I have no idea what she's talking about or where to buy it, so it's going to be an eventful outing lol!!!....if you can help, pleeeeease get in touch!

BARBIE UPDATE: Our trip to town was a success!!! No tears, no tantrums, just wonderful. We found the 'prize' in the second shop we looked in and here is my beautiful daughter Caitlin to show you what all the fuss was about

Have a super day, thanks for stopping by
