My Very First Sandra Dry .....

Did i mention i won last weeks Sketch Saturday lol! Well, i claimed my fab prize this morning and have unzipped my 6 images and have begun to have a little play .... lets just say i'm happy as a pig in muck! I've been drooling over Sandra's images for some time now, but with being on a strict craft diet and saving for my Magnolia Summer Stampclub Collection i've not been able to afford any new craft stuff and have been living off RAK's from my fabulous blog buddies and only buying the essentials.

I used this weeks Ismaki Challenge sketch 08/06 ~ Elisa

CS ~ Stash

DP's ~ recycled wrapping paper. This was wrapped around my birthday gift from Linda and me being me, just couldn't throw such beautiful paper away and have used it on 2 other cards too! Also used a couple of Basic Grey Motifica .

Image ~ Sandra Dry Meerkat, coloured with Whisper Strokes, Sakura Glaze and paper pieced.

Buttons and Raffia ~ Stash

Yellow Pearl CS ~ ribbled

The inside i decorated by adding a verse and by cutting some more of the Basic Grey paper.
