Sisters Birthday

Only a few days till my sisters birthday, so I have made her card based on 2 challenges
 This required a lot of masking to keep it a single layer. I cut several different shaped masks out of sticky-notes. I stamped my main image first then worked out (with a ruler) how to arrange the needed elements of the Mojo sketch (above).
After a lot of measuring and rough pencil scketch, I was able to start inking and colouring.
I used subtle colours because I didn't want them to overpower the actual dimensions. Being 2D, I just felt the lines of each section should be give it the layers.





I took this side angled view to show it's beautiful flatness.

Sorry it's a little out of focus.

Now I just hope Jasmine likes it.







I used SU Crisp Cantelope and Creamy Caramel inks, Promarkers,Finerliner Pen, WMS Compact Sentiments and Santoro No.8 stamp.

What a great challenge this was!

Back very soon

For those of you I have known for several years:
in the early hours of Tuesday morning we lost my mother-in-law. We believe at this time it was a heart attack but we will know once the postmortem has been completed. She had been poorly for a week and was on strong antibiotics.
We are in no doubt she is now giving my father-in-law hell and probably a kick up the arse.
We will miss her dearly.

I can see that you took great trouble over making this lovely one layer card, but our challenge this week is entitled "What's in my stocking?" and so sadly this card does not qualify!
I do hope you will join us again!

I love the simplicity of this card and the non-traditional colors. Very cute (and cuddly).

Wonderful masking, but unfortunately not connected to our theme :(.

Brilliantly executed but as mentioned, this isn't linked to our stocking theme.
So sorry for the late visit!
Thanks for sharing with us.
