Another card for today's sketch challenge - I stamped and cut this little image at my Mum's so it was a little too short for the sketch - I added some ribbon to make that bit of the sketch "fit". The Bow Easy definitely makes the knots of bows lay flatter, it all has to help in the postage costs area, as here, the price goes up according to thickness rather than size. I colored the image with copics and sponged the edges. I felt this verse really goes with the image, it's from The Message paraphrase of the Bible. This is for a girl who's leaving to go and work with young people in South Africa indefinitely. If anyone knows the name of the set this SU image comes from, let me know.
Would love to have added Crystal Glaze on this fish bowl, but mine got down to the end and dried up!!
