So there I was thinking I had til friday night to make my card and link it up to the Waltzing mouse sketch challenge, thinking I'd be clever and also enter it into the Play date Cafe's colour splash challenge, when I go on the blog and see the sketch challenge finished Thursday!!! boo hoo!! oh well at least I can still enter it into the play date one. serves me right for trying to be too clever!! haha!
this card is for my fabulous hubby, who has really supported me with my extra craftiness of late, and built me a desk, allowed me to take over the conservatory as my craft room and also the darlin' worked extra all week this week, and worked really long, tough hours at a really horrible job. So I'm mega proud of him, and i only wish Waltzing mouse's 'proud of you' stamps was bigger and said 'I'm soooooooooooooooooo proud of you'!!!
So, here's my card
Deets:
white and blue cardstock from papermill shop, black core'dinations (with blue core) embossed with cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder, spellbinders nestabilities label no.4 label, sentiment stamp by waltzing mouse, buttons & ribbons from stash, rhinestones from basic grey, flowers from gcs
I really loved the playdate cafes' colours this week, a nice, simple challenge to try for my first one. I just love blue! and its so effective next to the black & white too. here's the picture we had to work from
I've just popped over to the waltzing mouse sketch challenge blog and see theres a cool new challenge up, so I'm off to work! Gonna do it early so I don't miss out again!
Have a good weekend! and thanks for looking!

Love your card, especially how you've done the little details on the label. I miss lots of challenges. It takes a while for the sketch to get into the card stage for me. The idea's there, but it doesn't quite happen in real life! Thanks for playing along with us at the PDCC this week! Hope you join in again next week too :o)
