Stamp Something & Roses on Paper Challenges

Hope you all had a good start to 2009. We stayed in on New Year's Eve (with 3 little ones it was easier just to stay in). We tucked the kids in bed at 8.00pm and then opened up a bottle of wine and some snacks and watched a film, then saw the New Year in and went to bed.

This week on Stamp Something the theme is Something New - it can be made with new products(maybe some goodies you received under the tree!!) it can be using a new technique or something for a new occasion (baby, house, job.....) I've also found a new challenge site called Roses on Paper and there's a lovely sketch to follow, so I thought that I'd give this one a try to.

So this is the card that I came up with.

Almost everything on this card is new, the papers, the Tilda image, the pens I coloured the image with and the nesties (I must have been a very good girl, lol). The papers I used are the yummy Basic Grey Eva and the image is Tilda. I've coloured her in with my new fantastic Promarker pens and did the highlights with my white inkksential pen. The hearts have been cut out using my quickutz dies and then coloured them in with my promarker pens. I then embossed them with clear powder to give them a shiny finish. I also did the same with the sentiment and then cut out using my new nestie. The ribbon and heart gems are from my stash. TFL x
