I am hosting at Allsorts Challenge this week and I chose January Blues as the optional theme.
Our sponsors are Polkadoodles and Oakwood
Blue is not a colour that I usually reach for so it was actually a challenge to myself and I really enjoyed making this card. I used another of Jules' Sketches #49 that was perfect for using up bits from my scraps pile.
The stamp set I used is Concord & 9th Winter Wear that is available here if you fancy it. I coloured her with Promarkers and used one of the accent stamps in two shades of blue as a background.
I made a bit of a boo boo and didn't die cut the circle large enough so stamped and cut out the scarf seperately and mounted it with foam pads. I like that look.
I hope that you will pay us a visit at the challenge blog and join us.
Wishing you a good weekend whatever you are up to xx

Do love a good sketch Sarah and this is a great one, as you say perfect for using up those DP scraps. I thought the scarf was a design element, so it was a lucky booboo!:)
This is a great image and I love the popped up scarf. Super papers you paired with it too.
It's beautiful Sarah and I am loving all these pretty papers in blue.
No boo boo! It looks fab like that and who would've known? Lovely tones of blue and great use of the sketch.
