Dog with bone

   Friday has come round again meaning that there is a new QKR Stampede challenge.
For this card I have used the digi 'dog with bone', coloured it using Promarkers and fixed it behind a black square card from which I had cut a circular aperture. I then matted and layered this onto grey and then white card. The lacy corner embellishments were cut using a Tattered Lace victorian corner die.

Sunbathing mice

   The theme for this fortnight's challenge at Crafty Cardmakers is here comes summer. I thought these sunbathing mice were just the thing for this topic.
   The image is made using a decoupage sheet from the House Mouse Silly Summer set which was produced by Joanna Sheen. The sunflower paper is a remnant from my stash. I had printed the sheet using a CD ROM some time ago so cannot remember which one it was. Both these items and the yellow card have been matted onto olive green card.

Cat in a hat

   A fresh QKR Stampede challenge today with the anything goes theme.
I have used a Eureka Stamps digi called cat in hat, having decided to get underway in making my Christmas cards, coloured it using Promarkers and fussy cut it. The string of lights was cut using the Tattered Lace lightbulb garland die and also coloured using Promarkers. I used the merry Christmas vintage Tattered Lace die to cut the sentiment from gold mirri and white card.
