Using papers

I do hope you enjoyed the blog hop, last month at 52 { Christmas } Card Throwdown, it was lovely to have so many visitors to my blog and lots of people made cards for a chance to win a prize. Back to normal now, with our weekly challenges and as ever we start the month with a sketch. All of August's challenges have been set by Gill  and here is the first one


For me, the sketch made me want to play with some of my newest papers, all beautifully colour coordinated , from a set called Jewels...such gorgeous colours. I have also used silver mirri card for the matting and my snowflakes are polymer stickers. I have moved the sentiment to along the longest banner because it was too busy in amongst the spots.
