Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
Ever have one of those evenings? You know...The kind where you hear dishes breaking, garbage cans being dumped, toilets overflowing and full bookshelves crashing to the floor? You have? Were you AT MY HOUSE last night? LOL!
Yes...Speedy the Cat was on a rampage last evening...Or, Markie drank 300 Mountain Dews....I seriously doubt the latter....So, since Speedy the Cat dropped this image in my lap this morning, I TOTALLY changed my card and used her instead...What havoc would he have done if I didn't??? I do NOT want to find out!
The Teacher Anya was stamped onto watercolor paper and colored in with pencils and markers. I used several techniques including gamsol and an aqua painter....
The background was run through the snowflake Cuttlebug folder. I rubbed a More Mustard pad over it to create depth.
The snowflakes are Martha Stewart punches...Thank you Vicki! (Justcrazy!) The Dew Drops are from K&Co.

I love the jewel tones of the dp and the snowflake centers!! (Your house sounds like ours the night both a wood pile in the basement and the Christmas tree fell over..two hours apart..no sleep that night..I never thought about the cats..HMMM)

Great card. Fabulous colouring and I like the die shape you used behind her. Fun bling in the snowflakes too.
