Today's fun sketch was perfect for a fun party feel for this card, which goes to the daughter of one of our best friends. Now just to hope that her present arrives in time for us to deliver them together on Saturday!
A2 base. Papers are Provocraft Illuminations. I embossed the banners and sponged them.
Penny Black mice stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with distress inks, popped up on foam. I added Stickles to the cupcake frosting, and orange and blue rhinestones in the bottom corner to match the colours in the banners.
Thanks for such a serendipitous sketch, Cathy!

What a delightful stamped image. Love the pastel papers you designed by embossing and sponging and incorporating into this fun sketch.

Hey there gallery neighbor-I've been thinking of you as we've had several grey, rainy days in a row. Maybe you've finally had some sunshine?
Anyway! I love your sweet card-the texture you added to the banners is really nice and I like the colored gems.
