SSW2 Sketch 305

                                          Hello and thank you for visiting my blog today.

I have been a bit AWOL as I had a lovely week exploring the Norwegian Fjords earlier this month and it's been a struggle to get back into the normal routine.

So here I am with an unscheduled post to share my second DT card for our challenge over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this month, this is probably one of my favourite cards I have made so far this year.

My image and sentiment are from a Daisy Mae Lovely Ladies set that was free with issue 145 of Creative Stamping, smaller versions of a previous release so a better size for me as I don't often make large cards. The image was coloured with Copic alcohol markers

Papers are Daisy Mae Designs Loose Ladies and  the coloured card came from Craftwork Cards.

Ribbon is from stash and probably from the Hobby House.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges

Allsorts #826 - Seaside or Anything Goes

Creative Knockouts #549 - Summer Fun

NBUS #75 - my fiist play with these stamps

Stamping Sensations - Furry Friends or Anything Goes
