Congratulations !

Well I finally managed to make a couple more cards this week before it was back to work today. I made this card from a sketch I'd seen previously.I also thought I'd add some stitching effects on the card and enter it into a challenge I saw last week. It's ages since I've manage to enter one and now i cant for the life of me find it!!! (did I dream it ?). I used an image by hanglar stanglar and coloured her in with my prismacolors and sansador. I decided to use very pale colours to match the glitter paper from the butterflies and blossoms by DCWV. The ribbon was cut from my new M & S pyjamas LOL .I tied it through the buttons and attached to the card using silicone glue. I made this is for a friend of mine who has recently got a new job.

thank you for looking
