Sketch Saturday my card



Well here goes I do not think I have ever been so nervous making a card lol. This is my entry for the final round for the Dt call on Sketch Saturday. I am so thrilled to get to the final 12 and all the other ladies work is so fantastic that I feel honoured to get this far. The Sketch I chose to use was number 65 because it seemed to fit with the stamp I wanted to use.

For my card I have used:
Gorjuss girl stamp
Copics
Doodlebug papers
Martha Stewart border punch
Su punches and sentiment
Flowers from that market stall again

I have stitched around the outside and along borders
and could not believe it when my machine played up
half way through but I managed to salvage my card.
I have also decoupaged the girls skirt to add a bit of
flare on skirt.
