Sugar Bowl Sketch Challenge - Something New


Well.......no snow for 24 hours.......at last........but most of it is still on the ground round here......hoping it will start to melt today.......though the dogs have been having great fun!!

Chester loves it.....has reverted to puppyhood.
Stella wasn't too sure to start with.......but now tears around with him!!
And now for something different.........Spring........there's a sketch challenge at The Sugar Bowl..........and decided to go for some spring like colours........maybe it will give the weather a nudge.
They also want you to use something new.........although I've had the stamp for awhile.......haven't used her before [tut...tut].......so she's newly inked........and a slightly blurry photo I'm afraid.


Now I need to trudge up the hill........to where I left my car last Tuesday........and check if it's still alive......hoping to use it for work tomorrow........a very long old walk otherwise.

Beautiful card. Loving those spring colours and the manga girl image. Good luck with the car and thanks for sharing the pics of the dogs. You can see they're loving it. My four have been like mad things. They love it too. Lauren x

Love the card. Will definitely check out the sketch. I especially like the goldenrod flower!
And such happy puppies. For some reason, I'm really missing my doggie today (who passed away at the beginning of Sept.),
