I also added pearl Gems to decorate and inside the flowers,

glittered the flowers and edge of the sentiment.

A cold evening infront of the bonfire with Jacket Potates,

Not sure my little dog likes it tho as the fireworks are VERY noisy

where we live !! We live by a Sports Club and they have

a big party every year !! Free fireworks for us tho !!

Happy birthday.

Its time for a new challenge over at Lothian Crafts.

This month the theme is ......

A SKETCH ! 

Here is the sketch to follow.

Pop on over and join in the fun !

I have to say I find sketches quite difficult.

But I did it !!

I decided to make it a clean and simple card. 

I used the following dies:

Marianne Creatable leaves

Marianne Swirl leaf

Marianne Anjas Sqaures

I cut the three hearts out of the corners of a Anja square die cut.

All edges are inked with distress inks and glittered.

I added flowers and pearls.

Hope you like it! I have to admit to struggling, sketches I find 

quite hard sometimes.

Watch out for another post from me today!

Happy crafting !!
