Belated Birthday

Good morning everyone and nearly the weekend. The weather is quite nice up here again today so maybe spring is on the way!!

This is a stamp from Polkadoodles which features an Alice in Wonderland range. I stamped the image using London Fog memento ink for a more sketchy and softer look to the image and make it look like a drawing from the older books..

Now I am not the best with promarkers(admiring all those of you who are talented with them) But have used a selection for the rabbit here.(Dusky Pink, Satin, Pale pink)
For the image I have paper pieced his clothes which I think has worked well.
The papers are very old ones from My Mind's Eye which have been in the drawer for a while.

I thought this really large button suited it well for embellishments with the bow and some smaller buttons in the corners. All keeping to a pastel colour choice..

This card is for the following challenges:
Polkadoodles and Studio 12 challenge 8- Fantasy/Fairy Tale
Sketch Saturday challenge #247-Jen's  sketch
Creative Inspirations challenge 202- Buttons and bows
Fab'n'funky challenge#160 - Pastel colours
Simon Says Stamp challenge - Anything Goes
Cute Card Thursday challenge #258- something old

Hope evryone has a good day and see you again soon

  16. Oops... this is from when we were in the chaos of trying to pack to come away - seems like you kept slipping through the gaps in my somewhat patchy blog visiting at the time - apologies!! Another cracking card, Catherine with your trademark glowing turquoise colours, and a brilliant image.
