Everybody Art Challenge #98

The weather here has been terrible - gale force winds, rain and cold, so I'm really thankful that today I can see some sun yipppeeee (plus I can get some washing out on the line!). So with the weather putting a downer on things I had a play in my room and decided to bring a little colour into my life with this card. I love these new papers (that I've had for a number of weeks and haven't dared to let my scissors see them) DeLovely by Cosmo Cricket. I followed the sketch by Everybody Art Challenge Paper: Cosmo Cricket DeLovely mini deck Stamp: LOTV Rosie Posy Ink: Memento Accessories: Copics, Cuttlebug, Nesties, ribbon, chalk and gems. Thanks for looking.

Everybody Art Challenge #63

Happy Halloween :) Well we (myself and Martin) did have plans to go out this evening to a party, but when I took my dog, Bear out for a walk a little while ago, he got so scared 'cause some people are setting off fireworks! I don't mind them, but poor Bear doesn't like them one bit! So, Bear is in here with me munching on his food. Don't know what he's going to be like later when he goes outside to bed, now that's going to be fun and games!!! Over at Everybody Art Challenge the theme is 'Autumn' and again I've used my Sugar Nellie fall kit.
