Tilda with heart socks


Can you believe i am posting again this week?  i know, i dare not outdo myself, it may become a habit, lol.
I just had to share this card with you since i totally got carried away enjoying the process of putting a card together for a challenge as apposed to doing it for a commitment.  Its been a long time since i did something just for fun.

I am using the sketch from sketchy challenges


i just loved that it has so many layers
i am also gonna be entering a few other challenges with this card, hope i have read the rules correctly and dont disqualify myself by entering too many challenges with my card.

the paper is kinda old from Amercan crafts, all the other drek is from my endless stash.  I intend to do a little video sometime this week to show all of you that are interested in seeing, my STUDIO!! boy i sure have come a long way as far as having my studio done and organised so you can look out for that if you would like to see how the other half live in South Africa.

hope you like my newest card, thanks for visiting

Paola

    Hi Paola, what a beautiful card. Wonderful colouring, papers and a very unusual sketch that you've totally rocked it. I can't wait to see your studio, it's been ages since you showed us a wee sneak peek. Looking forward to seeing it completed.
