Cute Card Thursday....and Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!!

Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is excited to be sponsoring this week's sketch over at Cute Card Thursday again!!! Their sketches just seem to always be perfect for our images! And they are SO fun to play with!

For my card, I used the lovely Gabrielle!! I always enjoy colouring this gal's hair!! Such a hoot!! I used my Basic Grey Olivia pad and thought they would be perfect colours for Gabby's fun dress!



The card base is a 6x6 Basic Black card and the pinky red matting is some cardstock from Bazzill, I think. I coloured Gabrielle up with my Copic markers (and I don't know why my camera always takes funky pictures of reds and pinks....but trust me her dress is red, not orangey red) and cut her out in a big circle using my CM cutting system. I sponged around the edges of the main layer with Tea Leaves chalk ink and matted her on black.



Don'tcha love that big ol' green flower?? I've had this yummy package of Prima flowers in different colours for ages and finally decided to open it! haha! I also attached some reddish Prima hydrangeas with black glitter brads. And I totally love that giant black rick rack! I got it (and several other colours) at Hobby Lobby! And lastly, I added one of the fun sentiments from the Tea Sentiments set!!

Now hop on over to the CCT Challenge Blog and join in the FUN!!!

Happy kraftin'!
