Gorjuss Girls

Hi folks!!
I know, I know.... I don't do yellow... normally, but I just love these hot and spicy shades in the K&Co Mira kit. For this card I followed the sketch on the Truly Scrumptious Challenge blog. I am also entering this card to Cute Card Thursday and Charisma Cardz Challenges as they have both set the theme of animals.

I have already mentioned the papers I used for this card. The oval and scalloped oval were cut using my Nestabilities. The flower, which is made of tiny beads and has a resplendent jewelled brad in the centre, the leaf branch and the sentiment are all K&Co embellishments. I cut the photo corners using a Quickutz die. The black ribbons and red brads are from my stash mountain. I coloured my Gorjuss Girl and kitty with Koi watercolours. I know the combination and shades of colours may not be to everyones' taste... but I think they are cute ;o)

That's all for now folks!
Hugs
