Sugar Bowl Challenge #8 - Tiets sketch #2



Well, this week, I was determined I was joining in with this one,lol! Every day, I do lots of blog hopping and say that I am going to do this challenge and that one and Inever seem to get round to them all. The Sugar Bowl is a fab blog and since week one, I have said that I am going to join in the fun but I haven't managed it until now - that's as long as I'm not too late! Hope not!

Once again, everything that COULD go wrong with this one DID! The image was too large, the sentiment was wrong AND, when I went to do the inside the whole bl***y thing was upside down. So, no inside until I fix the front to another card - then, I will carry the sketch through since it's such a fab sketch. Bit complex but fun. Thanks Tiets!

And now, onto the card. The papers are K & Co. I think they are Mckenna but not too sure as I have half of one and half of a second 12x12 pack mixed together and no front covers. Sorry. The image is Sugar Nellie 'Penpal' coloured with watercolour pencils, metallic watercolour pencils and Twinkling H2Os. I got this from my daughter for Mothers Day. It was one I had been after for ages and typically, that's me just got round to using it! Worth the wait, me thinks! She is gorgeous, my daughter too, lol! Card stock is from my stash and I have left the sentiment strip blank so I can adapt it to suit the recipient.

Hope you like it

Lol the times I have done that Suzanne an upside down card, I made an ATC for Tilda and Friends last night but I just don't like it so I will have to try again. Anyway your card is truly gorgeous I love the image and your background papers are awesome.

I came across your blog and it made me smile, I made a Flippin Women card I stuck the back of the image to the acetate, but when I went to put the front on I realised the card was upside down and back to front......thankfully I managed to get the image off without marking the acetate.

Your card (or the front) is lovely - I just love these stamps.
