OK my mojo has been a little up and down at the mo, so sketch challenges are really helpful ... unless they have lots of lyers and I layer them up in the wrong order LOL!! Yep this week's
Friday Sketcher has been a real challenge, and I think I have layered a couple of layers in the wrong orde, and I have just realised I left a panel off ... sorry! Will be doing another card for this challenge ...eeek!
Anyway I combined the sketch with the
Just Magnolia challenge ... cracked glass. I love the cracked glass technique and really enjoyed doing it again ... although the paper was reluctant to crack as I used the thin card I use for my pens rather than my usual cardstock.

Tilda is coloured using my pens and then I follwed the cracked glass technique with her. I get the little bits of gold speckle I used gold embossing powder, and after heating the clear embossing powder, sprinkled a teeny teeny bit over, before using the versamark again. You do have to be really light handed otherwise it looks a mess and soesn't scrap off!! I haven't added any embellies ... I love this daisy D Christmas paper and just couldn't bring myself to cover it with flowers.
Its Beth's 4th birthday tomorrow so we are having a very busy weekend, not sure how much crafting I will get done ... the girls will be sleeping on my craft table LOL!!!!
