One Stitch at a Time Challenge 119

This week at One Stitch at a Time, our theme is 'summer dresses'. So, what does that mean to you? Colours, florals, actual dresses ... it's up to you!

Our sponsor this week is Joanna Sheen who's offering a £10 voucher to the lucky winner!




My card this week is 'Window' from My Heart Pieces, and it's a beautifully summery image.
 I coloured the image with Promarkers, and cut it and the mat using nestibilities in my Wizard. The paper is from MME's Summer pad which was a magazine freebie last year, and the pretty floral design would make a lovely summer dress. The mat is some 'paper' which I picked up a while ago. It looks like a very thin wood veneer, but I actually have no idea whether it's paper or wood. It took more cutting than paper would, but didn't crack as I thought it might, and I think it works so well with all the woody tones in the image. The long-legged bird overlooking the scene is one of the embellishments that came with the paper pad.

Hope you can join us this week.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Your card is very nice! I really like your stamped "window" image. You did a nice job coloring it with the Promarkers. I also really like your die cut "frame" that is showcasing your stamped image. That looks really good! Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
