Little Ballerina and Rosy

 I have made a card using Little Ballerina by LOTV .. but I didn't want to be too girly ... so she's blue and black (rather than black and blue!!!)


I coloured her using my distress inks and then cut her out and matted her onto these layered circles.  The dp is Basic Grey Periphery.  I added some ribbon from my stash and some flowers.

It fits these challenges:
Lili of Valley - circles
Charisma Cardz - Black, white + 1 (blue)
Wild Orchid Challenge - Anything Goes
PollyCraft- 3 circles (well there are 2, you can just see half of 2 of them!)

My 2nd card uses one of my favourite stamps,just not used it for ages ...
I do have a bit of a thing about House Mouse stamps, theose meeces are sooo adorable!!  I paper pieced the main part of the cup and watercoloured the mouse using distress inks.  I layered the mouse up to add some depth. Imade my own flower using layered, distressed circles and some organza ribbon.
Challenges:
Friday Sketcher - sketch
Totally Papercrafts -  paper peicing
PollyCraft- 3 circles
Allsorts - make your own flowers
