I had meant to post this card tomorrow, but yikes... I just noticed that one of the challenges which I was following to make this card ends tomorrow!!!! ... and I definitely didn't want to miss this one.. I made such an effort ... so I decided to post it today instead and then do my blog hopping tomorrow as have to go out now ...
Here it is... like ? I used Karen's Cat and Mouse stamp for my card today, which I coloured with my promarkers...
Wasn't sure which photo I liked best.. taken in the sun or not..
so I uploaded both :|
This is the photo inspiration that I followed..
and the sketch ...
I wasn't going to try this sketch, you might have noticed that I usually follow easier ones, but then I decided to give it a go. What are challenges for if I always try easy one? But anyway, when I finished it... wow I said.... I like THIS !!!! I will definitely try the harder ones now even though they will take me hours to finish he he :)
I am entering this card in the Polka Doodles Acqua Promarkers Mega Contest and also in these other challenges..

2 - Cute Card Thursday Challenge 122 - THE SKETCH

Super cute card Dora! I love the papers you used! I know what you mean about taking hours to make a card! I seem to do one little detail, tidy my space up a bit, then do another bit, tidy up again. I think if I did less of the tidying I'd get more card making done!
This is so pretty!! I love the colors and the flowers are so cute!
Beautiful card! I love the dotted flowers.

Ooooooh so pretty Dora! LOVE the paper you used and how you added the flowers. The picture looks great both ways...inside and out!
Gorgeous card Dora! Love the colours and your flowers look great. Thanks for playing at Karens Doodles UK. Viv x
This is just beautiful those colors (matching the hearts so well)! LOVE IT! Great sketch, you matched it perfectly. Amazing what a little sun will do to colors of papers! I like the sun shot better!
This is adorable. I love the soft subtle colouring and you have followed the sketch to perfection. I agree with Cor. Amazing what difference a little sun can make and I prefer the first shot too, it's warmer looking.
Anyhow enough of my waffling. Thank you for joining us at Crafty Cardmakers.
