What a crazy weekend we all had. It was a whirlwind of activities celebrating my sister's birthday. She is so much fun to be around that I wish that we could see each other more often. She lives in California and it's not always easy to get together. She left Sunday and I miss her already! My two sisters are planning a 12 day cruise to Ireland next summer and they want me to come along with them. Just us sisters! I hope that I can convience my husband to let me go. It's one thing to take a two week trip as a family, but a whole different ball game traveling for that long without them!
This card is a HouseMouse, and is called Napping on Thistle. I used my copic markers to color this in. (I only have Box A of the copics and am thinking that I need to get another set, probably Box B. I'll have to wait a month or two. I have been ordering lots of stamps from different companies and need to stop spending so much, especially if I want to go on that cruise next year! LOL)
Getting back to the card, I sponged around the image, and attempted to use the SU scallop border punch and screwed up on one punch so I kept screwing up and liked the outcome. It kind of looks like a fancy border. I added a little stickles to the flowering thistle.
Enjoy! Have a great day!
Smiles :)
