One of my New Years resolutions is to use up my stash and also try things new,
The Sketch for this card is something I have never done before,
I have never drawn my own sketch before I have always followed someone elses sketch.
The other new thing I used was my Crafters Companion CD, that I got before Christmas but had not used it yet, I have been ever so good this year so far, I have only bought one cd, no papers or other craft items yet, that is one resolution that I may break. lol.
I wanted to make a easel card, which was nice and bright and cheery on this dull snowy day.
I fell in love with this pyramage and invertage image with matching backing paper.
The ribbons I used on this card are recycled from presents and bits from Christmas as well.
I drew this sketch below, and the above photo's are the end result.
I originally started off doing this card for the Its a Crafter's Companion challenge,
then found it fitted these others as well -

Girly Card - Cupcake Craft
New - Cute Card Thursday
