Papertake challenge – sketch #31

 b'day card (5)

b'day card (5) close up

I’m back with my first card of 2010 woohoo!  The papertake challenge this week is a brilliant sketch by Dawny p but I did rotate it to fit my image.  It’s my great-auntie’s 97th birthday today and this is the card I made for her.  I used my new kraftin’ kimmie stamp called ‘Clara’ (thank you Maria) and coloured her with my promarkers.  The stripey paper and plain paper is SU, the embossed panel is Bazzill card and the trellis paper is from my scrap box.  The sentiment was created on the pc and the adhesive stones are PM.  I doodled around the edges with my black fineliner pen a la Dawny p!  A simple card but I really loved using this sketch – one to keep for again I think.  Have a fab Sunday, I’ll be back tomorrow with my DT cards for cupcake craft challenge and stamp with fun challenge.  Thanks for stopping by today.
