CR84FN 17, Stamptacular Sunday, Sunday Sketch and Stamp

Hi lovely people, I didn't think I would have time to craft today, but whaddya know - the weather is terrible again, so kiddies and daddy are tucked up watching Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade, so I get some crafty time!!

Every Sunday there is a new colour challenge over at CR84FN, Stamptacular Sunday which have a variety of challenges and Sunday Sketch and Stamp have a great sketch today. So with a few hours of relative crafty bliss, I flexed my mojo and stamped away to my hearts content. Aaaah, that's better!

Here is the inspiration:


Beautiful colours *sigh*!



Fabby sketch! For my card I have rotated the sketch 90'.

And here's my take:



Seeing as how Easter is around the corner, I thought I'd get ahead and start on some cards.

I had got the Easter themed Spring Baskets from Waltzingmouse Stamps, late last year and hadn't really had the chance to use the egg or basket stamps.

I stamped the eggs and basket (two separate stamps in Memento Rich Cocoa, and coloured them with Promarkers.


Then using a background from Pic-Nic Patterns, stamped in Dew Drop Bamboo leaves the background panel.

The sentiment is from the Spring Baskets set , stamped in an ink I've had for ages but there's no name on it!




Layered both the sentiment and basket onto some green bazzill cut with my Nestabilities Squares Sml, Lacy Squares and Fancy Tags.



Layered them altogethe and adhered to some pink bazzill card, threaded some polka dot pink ribbon through the sentiment tag, and attached to a pearlescent card base.

Finally added some pearls to the top right hand corner and sentiment.

I really love how this card turned out, the colours are fabulous together, so thanks to Mona Pendleton and her wonderful DT for the inspiration!

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
