Ooops!...

Good evening, dear Blogger friends! Well, that's another week gone and the weekend is here again - I hope the sun has been shining where you are! 
I have a card to share this evening using a sweet image from Arthur's Clipart...

...I've used this little cutie before and think that her expression is just perfect for a Belated Birthday card.  As you can see, I still have my obsession with orange - I am just lovin' this colour at the moment and it seems to go with so many other colours too!  I tweaked another Mojo Monday sketch (#250) and used First Edition Spring Feast, Isabella and my favourite paper of the moment, the paisley from Boho Chic.  I glittered the background paper and added some diamantes for a bit of interest...

I coloured the little swim girl with my Promarkers and had my first attempt at making a cloudy background - I was quite pleased with how it turned out!  If you'd like to know the colours, then here they are :

Skin : Blush, Dusky Pink, Sunkissed Pink, Rose Peach FM

Hair : Honeycomb, Spice, Auburn FM, Rosewood FM

Hat : Antique Pink, Cocktail Pink, Watermelon FM, Tea Rose FM

Paddling Pool : Gold, Honeycomb, Pumpkin, Mandarin FM

Swimsuit : Aniseed, Lime, Pear Green

Duck : Buttercup, Canary, Sunflower FM

Sky : Blender, Glacier Blue FM, Dove Grey FM, Dolphin Blue FM

Grass : Aniseed, Lime, Pear Green, Leaf Green, Grass

I added some mulberry paper daisies, with polka dot button centres...I'm really liking these at the minute, it's funny how we go through phases of liking things, plus you have to think of postage costs these days too!

...I printed an insert with the line image and sentiment, using Crazy Girl Blond font from Serif...

...And an angled view to finish!  

I have a workshop in the morning, so will try and remember to post pics of the cards we make - hope you find time to craft this weekend and I'll be back soon with some more paper creations!   Thanks for popping in, crafty hugs, Lisa x
