Meg and Big Red

Hello my lovely crafty buddies. Hope you have had a good week and have a nice weekend to look forward to.

It's my turn to share some inspiration for


and this time it is in the shape of Meg and Big Red, only I have changed her into a grey chicken to blend with the MME papers!! 



I have some new papers on the way so thought I had better try and use some of my older pads!! Between you and me, in the highly unlikely event that I live to be 200 years old, I won't even scratch the surface!! Anyhow,  she was coloured with Promarkers and I embossed the panel with a folder that came free with a magazine, back in the summer, to add some texture. The organza ribbon  was a perfect colour match for the mustard shade, and is lovely and soft so will squash quite nicely into an envelope for posting.

Thank you for your visit today xx

Beautiful card Sarah! Loving this colour palette, that blue really pops against the warm golden tones! The embossing panel is just amazing, adding texture and interest without stealing focus from your adorable image! LOVE IT!

MaryH said...

Had to chuckle over your 'living to be 200 yrs old to use up some of your papers'. I think all of us could understand that! Love this cute image, and paired perfectly with gorgeous papers. The embossing on the mat looks great topping the sweet DP on the base. TFS & Hugs

Linda Mc Enery said...

Mmm Sarah, I can definitely identify with the paper addiction! Definitely one of my weaknesses! Your card is absolutely adorable!
