Ooh, look, it's still sunny! I have had the last couple of days off work and have totally enjoyed the sunshine pottering in the garden. I have so far harvested some broad beans, new potatoes, a few strawberries and lots of lettuce, and have so many raspberries I (almost) don't know what to do with them!
This morning I went for a long walk with Dr Hubby and for anyone who knows what I am talking about, found 17 Geocaches :-)
Oh, and I also found a bit of time to make a couple of cards while I was recovering from all that sunshine and outdoor stuff :-)
So, down to the important business and that is a new challenge over at Totally Gorjuss and this week the theme is...
Sweet!
Our sponsor this week is Crafters Companion with a voucher to spend in store on some of their many goodies; now that is sweet!
I paper pieced the dress and then added a touch of shading/folds with a couple of Copics.

Wishing you all a lovely sunny weekend :-D

Kat, she is sweet as can be with her little bouffant dress and bouffant hair style piled on her head. Really a darling image which you have brought to life with the poke a dot dress and pretty shading - I especially like how your background panels are layered - done in a muted color so that your wonderful birthday girl image features prominently. Wonderful card!
So gorgeous Kat. I love the sweet image with her pretty dress and yummy looking cake!
I hope you enjoy the rest of the weekend

Lovely card Kat! Great layout and colours, and I just love these stamps... so far I've managed to resist them but I'm just waiting for an excuse to buy one really ;o) Hugs, Lisa x
What a wonderful card. I love the image and your paper piecing is great...and how you shaded a bit with a marker is a GREAT idea for depth. I shall have to remember that trick. Love your coloring on this and your colors are great. It IS nice to do something a little different now and then! Very pretty card, even with less embellishment than you've used in recent cards!!!!! Hugs, Gail
Beautiful card and layout.
