Swan Lake

There is a new challenge today at 2 Sisters Challenges, and the theme to play along with this week is a sketch by our very own Mary.  We're sponsored by Patties Creations who have kindly supplied some digi images for the design team to showcase.

Here's my card:    I hope you think it is all 'white' !!! (get it !?!)

This is a real move away from my safe place.  No colourful designer papers, not a marker pen or nestie in sight, and no freebie circle sentiments.   I may have to go and lie down as I'm feeling feint from withdrawal symptoms.



Here's the sketch :


Card Recipe:
  • Image - Swan Love by Patties Creations
  • Colouring mediums - Watercolour pencils & Dovecraft Shimmer chalks
  • Cherry Blossom, 10mm & 15mm roses - Wild Orchid Crafts
  • Border punch - Martha Stewart Lace Doily
  • Embossing folder - Cuttlebug D'vine Swirls / Swiss Dots
  • From my stash - Ribbons, pin, liquid pearls
Please pop on over to the 2 Sisters Challenge Blog to see the other creations by the talented design team, and to enter our challenge.  I look forward to seeing your creations this week.

I've been inspired by:
Happy crafting.
