Happy Sunday!

Sketch Challenge at Catch the Bug!

For my card I used a Bugaboo Digi called

Monster Balloon Birthday.

I love Jodie's cute digital designs! 

I thought this monster would make a super cute child's birthday card!

Small Harvest Basket

Hello Friends! 

Today I am showing a card I made

 with Eureka's stamp "Small Harvest Basket".

This makes a lovely fall card!

I cut a circle then stamped the image in black ink.

I then used Antique Linen Distress ink to antique the paper.

I then watercolored with Distress inks. 

I finished the image by using a fine line black pen to enhance the lines.

The brads are some off brand brad I had in my collection.

Thanks for stopping today!

Come back soon!
