Hello there my lovely blog chums......hope you've had a great week so far. I've spent the last few days with a paintbrush in my hand, walking gingerly up and down my stairs, trying to avoid getting gloss paint on myself.....we were ready to paint the inside of our new porch, this week and somehow the job extended into the front door and up the stairs too! I will be returning to work on Sunday after being furloughed since March, and this wasn't how I wanted to spend the last few days.....but at least its done now.
I do have a card to share with you today, I have based it on a sketch.....with a couple of small tweaks.
Gnomes, seems to be quite the thing this year and this wee fellow from Star Jam Lines is fabulous to work with. He is coloured with Promarkers, and I mounted the image onto a doily. Both papers are Nitwit downloads. Sentiment is my own creation. Wooden dots added as embellishments.
My card is based on this sketch
I would like to enter these challenges please

As You Like It Challenge Blue, paired with: Beige/Kraft tones....I think blue "softens" the beige tone....and likewise, beige tones add warmth to blue.

Choosing my words very carefully here, but I am assuming that this is a more "mature" Gnome.....its a big, white bushy beard thing!!!!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit me today....stay safe xx

Hi Lisa
ReplyDeleteBack at work after so long .. .. that will feel very strange. I wonder how long it will last? Things aren't looking too good again are they?
Loving your Christmas card. Such a lovely image .. .. and great use of the paper doily. They seem to breed in my drawer!
Hope your week goes well.
Love Jules xx
