Sugar Bowl time 92

Morning, it's that time again, bring on the Sugar bowl challenge.  Today it is my turn for a sketch and here is my card.


This card is a whopper at 8" but I had great fun making it.  And my sketch...


The finished card is slightly different, but isn't that all part of the fun?
My challenge this time is to use this colour palette.....mmmmm it's got to be my favourite combination....I hope you have fun with it.


Up for grabs are 4 of your choice from the fabulous Sugar Nellie range of stamps which will increase to 6 if we have more than 100 entries.  You can enter as many times as you like but must use a Sugar Nellie stamp as your main image.

Today I have used Sugar Nellie image "Ocean's gift!" together with papers from DCWV The Linen Closet.  The sentiment stamp is by Stampendous and the image is coloured with Prisma pencils and Distress ink Vintage photo.  Wire, lace, pearls, ribbon and button are from my stash. 

Is it wrong to be singing "Under the sea" whilst posting this?! 

That's all from me today, have a super day and remember you've got to be in it to win it!
Enjoy the challenge and happy crafting.  x

Fabulous card Erika, and yes I always sing Under The Sea when I see these images and then for hours afterwards!

Fab sketch, I loved this one - though I didn't much enjoy the colour Turquoise! Not much choice for that shade with the DI's!

Big hugs

What a gorgeous card you've made with lots of detail. I can see why you enjoyed making this one. Love your colouring on craft and the colour scheme. The beads on wire is a very clever embellishment.
