Cute Card Thursday Challenge


Here is this weeks challenge card for Cute Card Thursday. This weeks theme is water. I used another new stamp which I purchased from QVC not long ago. Its a faoam stamp but the image came out really well and she is rather sweet! I coloured her in with Promarkers, matted and added to Basic grey 2 Scoops papers which I love. Couldn't find an image with water so I used the Magnolia Watering can and again coloured with Promarkers. Added a rub on sentiment to complete the card.
Daniel had his 1st trial day at the new school today, it could have gone better as something upset him and he couldnt focus for the rest of the day but we think he'll be alright once he gets used to the routine. Spent nearly 3 1/2 in travel time to and from there but as of tomorrow the LEA will be providing a taxi for him, dont think I could go through that everyday and poor Zoe had to be picked up by a friend. Anyway, not had a chance to craft today, need to check out the rest of this weeks challenges and see if I feel up to making any of them. TTFN and thanks for looking!

Carolyn Bounds said...

This is definitely a cute card! As a matter of fact, it should be the very definition of a cute card:o) I love the colors you selected, and your intepretation of water...watering cans...what a creative idea! I never would have thought of it.

BTW, you have an incredible blog!!! I will be stopping by much more often!

Oh, Claire, this is indeed very cute. Love the watering cans and the whole layout of the card. Sure hope things improve for Daniel. The first few days of school are always so chaotic and rather stressful.
