I really enjoyed making this card and know that this is a sketch I'll use again and again. I realised too late that I'd got put my ribbon layer under rather than over, but hey... my brain ain't what it used to be!
Here's my card
The papers are MME Fine and Dandy (Boy) and not my usual colours, but I love this pad so much I've ordered another one! The great thing is that the papers tone beautifully with my Timmy markers, so the little hAnglar chap was a joy to colour.
I layered my layers (!) on coordinating Bazzill and inked all of the edges with Walnut Stain DI. The sentiment is one of the new Lili of the Valley stamp sets. I thought this was really good value as it has loads of stamps for different occasions and they've all got a border around them. I'm not the best at cutting out freehand but inking edges hides a multitude of sins! All that was needed to finish the card off was some ribbon from my stash and a couple of pearls from Wild Orchid Crafts.
