We have a bit of a change going on over there. We are now going Monthly, so will be starting on the first Thursday of the month. We will be Anything Goes, with an optional theme. This week that theme is Transport. But mind - it's only optional. This week we have three sponsors. <a href="https://whimsystamps.com/">Whimsy Stamps</a>, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/alldressedupstamps">All Dressed Up Stamps</a> and <a href="https://stampersdelights.com/">Stampers Delight</a>.

I coloured her using Polychromos Pencils and blended with Sansador using paper stumps. The papers are digital from Sweet Shoppe Designs - Happy Holidays by Zoe Pearn. The dies are from Whimsy apart from the Penguins. They are by Joy Crafts. I coloured them in.

The Penguin is Bugaboo which I have had coloured for ages, so thought it was time he made it to a card. The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley. Used a snowflake embossing folder and a Martha Stewart Icicle punch.</p>Crafting Andyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04992782622945193471noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485616514152992794.post-39249829340458554442020-11-20T20:38:00.002+00:002020-11-20T20:38:33.861+00:00Cute Card Thursday 661 - Sentimental<p> New Challenge over at <a href="https://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com/">Cute Card Thursday</a> and we have the theme of Sentimental.
