Sweet Pea Stampers Challenge - 18 November 2011

I am hoping that this post goes on my blog.  I've had problems with not being able to get on the internet for a day and even now it's so slow to load the pages.  My son thinks the wireless router and Virgin modem aren't talking to each other properly - well they better as being able to get on the computer is my lifeline.

Well it's time for another challenge at the Sweet Pea Stampers Challenge Blog.  This time the topic is "sticker shock".

For my card I have used my Sweet Pea Stamp by Elaine Cox called Katie.  I have coloured her with Promarkers, highlighted areas with my Sakura Stardust clear pen, torn around the edges and inked with a green chalk ink pad.  The backing papers I was given so I am unsure of the make.  Some of my DCWV card I have embossed for the image to lie on.  The stickers I have used I got in some blog candy.  They are a fabulous quality and are from the company  Studio 112 and I have used two swirly frames and two corners.  The card is finished off with some ribbon, roses, large flower, skeleton leaves and some green pearl gems added to the ribbon.
