SPOONFUL OF SUGAR CHALLENGE 39 - SKETCH BY DEBBIE
I really like Debbie's sketch for Challenge 39, over at A Spoonful of Sugar.
I already had a few images stamped and coloured (something to occupy me whilst watching tv with my daughter!) So I decide to use my Reflection stamp from Pollycraft's Winter Elves Collection . I coloured using a combination of distress inks and water colour pencils.
This also worked perfectly for Challenge 9 over on Pollycraft ! How fab!
I added some stickles to the 'pom pom's on her hat and trousers and to the swirls on the branch. DP papers are Basic Grey Euphoria. Flowers are Prima, brads Basic Grey Euphoria, spacers, charms and ribbon from my stash.
The sentiment is from a freebie off a magazine (can't remember which one, sorry) and the envelope is a Woodware punch.
The butterflies are pearlescent acetate that I have then glittered and doubled up to be able to bend the wings to make them look like they are fluttering! These were one of those packs for either putting inside cards or decorating tables, hope you know what I mean!
Oh and I have to confess to using one of my daughter Kati's jewel swirl hair charms as an embellishment. Well she doesn't use them anymore!
The inside was decorated to compliment the front using the same papers, flowers, swirl stamps and ribbon.
Hope you like it!
