So Tall

Good Morning everyone!  It was lovely to have a nice sunny day yesterday! I don't know what happened today as it was supposed to be nice but it is a bit rainy at the mo - hopefully it will clear up soon.  I am now on my second lot of antibiotics from the dentist as the first didn't make any difference.

For today's card I have used one of my images I got in my Pollycraft bundle:


This little cutie is called So Tall and I have cut her out with Spellbinders Large Circle die and coloured her with my Copics and Prisma Pencils.  I have followed a sketch for the layout, the sketch is from  Sentimental Sunday.  The papers are by Nitwits from the Bumbleberry Too Collection. I have punched the tag with my Woodware Punch which is ancient - almost an antique I think.  The banner dies are by Memory Box I bought them when I won a voucher for Simon Says Stamp and they arrived yesterday.  The twine and gems are from my stash.  I would like to enter the following challenges:

Sentimental Sundays - Sketch and Summer Fun
Lollipop Crafts - Flowers in Bloom
Love to Create - Summertime Fun
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
The Crazy Challenge - Recipe (I have used Twine, Gems, Dies and Punch)
Catered Crop - Banners and Bunting
Corrosive Challenge - Feeling Punchy
Pan Pastel - Summertime
Two Sisters - Plaids and/or Stripes
Sweet Stampin' - Summer Fun
Crafty Ann's - It's a Girl Thing
Cropstop - Banners and Pennants

Well that's it from me for today I really must try and get two cards done today, all I have been able to manage is one and I have some DT work I really need to get cracking on.  Thanks so much for your visit, I will see you tomorrow and take care xx

Hey pretty lady. We have been out of town and I am just now trying to catch up. We used to say this to our babies when when they were babies - we would hole their little arms up and say "so tall". You just brought back some fond memories. Very cute card. I have some family pictures posted on my blog if you wold like to take a peek. You will never see me in my bathing suit again!
