Sketch Saturday (Gorjuss Mum)

Good Afternoon!!

Sorry this post is a bit late... I've been catching up on a bit of housework this morning... 

shhhh... I know crafting is more important, but I don't think the craft fairy noticed! ;)

This week at Sketch Saturday the fabulous Jo has provided us with yet another SUPER DOOPER sketch...

(when doesn't she?)

I decided to use it to make one of my 2 needed mothers day cards... (you'll see the other next week ;))

I always find that when my mojo is a bit 'off' I can give it a little boost by colouring up a gorjuss girl...

I do still have a BIG place in my heart for these...

She's coloured with Promarkers and pencils...

this sketch is great for using up scraps of paper... so thats 3 bits used out of my thousands of bits...lol!

think they are all either MME or Echo park

I've hand drawn a panel on Kraft to incorporate the scallops needed for the sketch...

The image is mounted on a nestie shape which I've coloured with a promarker, and then stamped a few little blooms on to it... (not sure where the stamp came from)

the 'you're the best' is the words from a whimsy stamp...

I've hand cut the 'MUM'

risson, flowers buttons etc... from stash...

Sketch Saturday... on the RIGHT day...go me!!!

Morning all!!

phew! I've literally JUST managed to get my card posted to Sketch Saturday by the skin of my teeth... with just a couple of minutes to spare...

AND, I'm posting it here on the right day!! now thats progress!

Fab start to the weekend, up nice and early, and things going to plan so far... all we need now is a nice sunny day!

right... I'm waffling...

This week over at Sketch Saturday, its the oh so talented Tracey's turn to provide a sketch for us... and its a beauty!!

We are SOOO lucky to be sponsored by the amazing Krista Smith who has generously offered 2 Saturated Canary digis for the lucky winner... woooohooooo!!

Most of the 'Saturdays' have used Kristas digis this week... and there are some literally STUNNING creations... make sure you check them out...

Heres mine....

this is Frizzy jynx... LOVE her!!!!! 

I thought she was just perfectly sassy and cheeky enough for my baby sisters Birthday card... 

and her birthdays not till the end of the month... so I'm ahead for a change!!! oh my!

The papers are a mix of bits and bobs from my scrap draw... I think mostly MME, and echo park...

I didnt want anything too flowery, as she's not really a 'girly girl', so just made a little rolled flower from kraft to add a bit of 'something'.... a few buttons, bit of ribbon and some sparkly 'dots'...

The 'lil' was hand written on kraft, and layered on foam pads...

the SIS is letters from a crate paper set... I coloured over the original light blue colour with a promarker...

bit of doodling here and there...

et voila!

not sure the photo is all that good, but thats what you get when you try to take it at 7:30 in the morning!

right... off for a coffee I think...

see you soon!!
