2 Sketches 4 You




This week its Laura's turn for the sketch over at 2 Sketches 4 You and if you haven't already then you need to check it out as they are having a 1st Annual 2 Sketches 4 You ultimate Card Showdown and there are lots of fabby prizes to be won


This is my card that I am entering for the 2S4Y 1St Annual ultimate Card showdown


I realise it might not be to everyones taste but there is something about it I really like(for a change)
I stamped the bird image onto cardboard and highlighted it with white and white chalk, inked the edges and added some glitter
The inside of a card box box idea I pinched from my Funky Hand team mate Carol and inked this and glittered it also and added you've captured my heart ribbon, a flower and a red heart
Hope the photo is ok to see it properly
Thanks for looking
