the sugar bowl


late on parade today, this card is for this weeks challenge at the sugar bowl which is a sketch and the colour combo blue and green for this i've used the image 'daisy' and coloured her with my promarkers the papers are basic grey 'two scoops' the border punch is martha stewart doily, the flowers are prima, the brad from stash and the spacer from ebay, the ribbon was a birthday pressie and the leaf punch is woodware. the embossing was done with the stylised flowers embossing folder and cut with the peony nestie. sorry about the shadows on the piccy, the light was a bit naff.

Thanks for popping in

Hugs

Such a gorgeous card Helen! I love the colors and the papers. I had fun playing the Sugar bowl as well.

I think you should definitely give it a try at Midnight Madness Sketch, you're cards have beautiful color, and not to mention up to $500 prize they are giving up, each week's entry is one more chance at the pot.
