Garden Fairy Katie Card PWC 117

This week's challenge included a sketch by Frances. I just realized, card making is so much easier if you follow a sketch. Since I was home today, I decided to put all chores aside and work on this card until Logan got off the bus. So without further ado, here is the sketch.

Cute sketch, right. Here is my card:


As always the card look better in real life. I used Paper pretties Garden Fairy Katie, Designer paper is Basic Grey Origins, Martha Stewart's punch, glitter, textured cardstock, flowers, Mango pearls, shear ribbon from Joanne's and colored everything with copic markers except for the doilie, I used my SU ink apricot appeal and used a mix of embossing powder and glitter to give it some shine.


With this week's challenge you have a chance to win Paper Pretties set "Simply Special". Come on get your paper and stamps out and make a card...who doesn't need a card. As always, thanks for stopping by!!!

I am also adding this card to the Oh, Alice! challenge. I just know I won't have enough to time to finish a second card.
