"Scrummy Stash Cafe" & "Sugar Nellie" Challenge Card


This has to be my all time favourite card at the moment. Not bad seeings as I'd lost my mojo for a few days but looks like it has returned! I am putting this card into the Scrummy Stash Cafe Challenge as this weeks theme is "Shapes" and I have used circles on this card and "Sugar Nellie" Challenge as you had to use baby pink on the card so thought I'd give both a go. Dont think I've made a long DL card before and used my Prisma Pencils with Sansador to colour my "Sugar Nellie and "Magnolia" bench for the first time. "Wow" so easy to use and if you dont have them in your stash, you really should try them out, they're fab!! I won a set of 120 Prisma Pencls on ebay for about £30 and think I'll be using them alot more, especially on my Magnolia and Sugar Nellie stamps. Also used my "Wizard" for the first time, and cut out the circles with my "Nestibilities", added Liquid Pearls around the edge and now I need to buy the Ovals and of course a few more dies. Have Stamped "Dream" and have added Prima Flowers, a Gingham Bow and 3D Butterfly. Hope you like it, am going to sit and look at it all day!!!

Such a pretty card, I love how you have coloured the stamped image. You got a real bargain with the pencils, I paid much more than that. I never use anything else to colour with now. Have fun.
