Sketch Saturday #46

Hi Folks!!
Hope you are having a great Easter weekend and still managing to squeeze a bit of crafting and blog hopping too :o) Over on Sketch Saturday this week Jo has come up with another fabby Sketch. Clare Chanter who owns Thread Bare is sponsoring this weeks challenge, more details on the blog about the prize. It's also Broceliane's second week as our Guest DT. Be sure to check out her beautiful card and that of the rest of my fellow Designers.
I made this card for my buddy Christine Dark. Please join me in wishing her a HaPpy bIrThDaY today!!!! The papers for this card are by Imaginese. I punched a strip of vellum with my Martha Stewart punch. I think the ribbon was a freebie from a magazine. The cute Tilda is from the Spring kit. As usual I have chopped of the ladybirds antennae and replaced with curled wire ones. I coloured the image with my koi water colours. The flower and leaves are from my button box and have been adhered with dimensional glue gel. The sentiment is a Papermania sticker and I have finished the card off with some lush red self adhesive pearls. Not sure if you can see or not but I gave Tilda some eyelashes which help her to look ultra cute ;o)
Ciao for now!
