Friday Sketcher

Another card I made on Friday, but am only posting now as I have a sneaky few minutes. We have had a bad night ... Ellie was sick all over her bed and then all over Beth's bed, so I ended up on the sofa!! I have made this as an order for a friend using this week's Friday Sketcher. She wanted a very uncluttered card with NO flowers (deep gasp at that one!!)

I love this SN image, and watercoloured her and distressed the edges. I used my new nesties to cut her and the dp out. I made robbon slots nad threaded the ribbon through and tied a bow. I twisted the ribbon on the right side to add a little interest. Finally I stamped the corners. Very uncluttered!!!
Off to be sociable ... our friends go this afternoon and the girls were supposed to be going to a party, but not now, so I might get some crafting in later.
Recipe:
Stamp(s): Sugar Nellie Windswept
Colouring Media: Distress inks
Papers: K and Co Roam
Embellishments: ribbon from stash
