Hello to all you wonderful bloggers out there in cyber space. For you in the UK are you getting ready for the big freeze that is evidently on the way?? Hopefully it will freeze up all this blasted rain.
I have made a card today using a sketch over at Raise The Bar and I do love my sketches! I love the images of Mayzy Art and bought a few new ones at the weekend (naughty girl) along with some new paper pads!
She's called Bibi's Harmony and I have coloured her with Copics and Prismas. I decided to make the bird a canary because my mum always had a canary (which was always called Chirpie!). I cut her and matted her with my Grand Nesties as I made her quite large. The heart edge is a Martha Stewart border punch but I used it around the edge as explained by Debby. The papers are from Echo Park called Sweet Day - really pretty pad. The sentiment I think I got free in a magazine and I have used a Spellbinders Ribbon Banner to cut and emboss it and then coloured it with Memento ink in Cantaloupe. The little flowers were made with the die from the Spellbinders Homespun set. The pearls and ribbon are from my stash.
