Another Sugar Nellie card


I just love these images. So much so, in fact, that I ordered a couple today from England! This on-line shopping allows me to shop anywhere, anytime and that's not necessarily a good thing. Oh well, why worry? The button's been pushed and the money's been removed from my account. I might just as well dream about what fun I'm going to have in a couple of weeks.

I used my Copic markers for this and tried blending some more. I really need to practice blending and I think I'm getting the hang of it. It really adds depth to the look, don't you think? It's going to be a birthday card for one of my Stamp Shack friends, but I'm not saying who it is. I want it to be a surprise. The idea for a double knot came from Inkin' It Up!, a blog by Kendra Giles. I love her cards and how straight and neat she does her layering. She must have a very special cutter or some sweet secret I need to know!

BINGO resumes tomorrow morning and I'm going to have to start the post tonight. I think there will be something like 20 numbers to call, or close to it, at least. Well done, ladies. I'm impressed. See you in the morning.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Groovy Guava, Bazill Blue
DP: u/k
Stamp: Sugar Nellie
Ink: Black
Accessories: Groovy Guava, Soft Sky & Blue Bayou ribbon, gold brads
