Sketch Saturday #217

It's Saturday which means another fab sketch from

Sketch Saturday

Sponsored by the wonderful

Bunny Zoe's Crafts

who are offering our lucky winner a fabulous £10 gift certificate.

I have a very good friend who has a bit of a teddy fetish and this wonderful Elisabeth Bell stamp called out to me from it's never-opened packaging to make this card for her.  She is called "Beary Big Hugs".  I used my absolutely gorgeous new Prima papers called En Francais, a Word processed sentiment and some small cuts from a Nestie die for the two little buttoned "thingies" to the right of the image.  Before colouring this beauty with my Copics, I  stamped a few florishes round the edge.  I avoided adding any embellishment because I think our sketch this week is perfect without them and I didn't want to obscure my lovely papers.

There is a raft of wonderful inspiration from my teamies on our challenge blog.  Do go and share some love with them all, make a dash for your stash and come and join in with us this week.

I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Elisabeth Bell's World "red, white and blue";

Raise the Bar "red, white and blue"

Let's Ink it Up 25 "All girl";

Hanna and Friends 150 "We celebrate";

Ribbon Girl 21 "photo inspiration" - I used the colours blue and light terracotta;

Cupcake 201 Le Tour de France;

Papertake Weekly "all things girlie"; and 

ABC "T for Two" I used two little nestie pieces on the edge of my image with two little buttons.
