MIDNIGHT MADNESS (MMSC7)


Happy Tuesday everyone!

Well it's that time of week................time for Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge number 7
Are we ready to play?? Every week it gets so much harder to pick a winner for the Midnight Madness Masterpiece..I know I said that last week too, but you need to see these creations that everyone is coming up with..............AWESOME! For some of the first time players, welcome and please come back because this DT is so inspired by all of the entries.....

Don't forget that there is also a chance to win some Mad Money during the month of June, so make sure you stop on by priscilla's blog to check out all the details. You will be glad you did.

Anyway, onto my card for this sketch...I chose another Elisabeth Bell image to create this card and this one is called "Country Style". I colored her in copics and prismacolor pencils then mounted the picture on foam squares to raise it up. The dp is by K&C called Que Sera Sera and I just love the pastel colors of this one. The cream lace has ribbon threaded through it which gives it a little feminine touch and of course the flowers...I always love flowers on cards...not that I have such a good selection, but I think they make a card look extra pretty!!! I did some stitching on this card too and added some little butterfly gems to the corner, and the sentiment "missing you".

card recipe
Stamp - Elisabeth Bell Country Style (from Sugar Nellie's)
DP - K & C Que Sera Sera
Butterfly gems - from my stash....Michael's I think
Flowers - Prima Calypso (orange), Prima Nursery Tales Vintage style (mint green), and white flowers from my stash

Let me know what you think!
Hugs and have a very happy Tuesday!
Charlotte
