Friday Sketchers #51

I just had to have a go at the Friday Sketchers sketch this week as it looks so much fun. It was also another excuse to play with Miss Anya! I'll definitely be adding this sketch to the little folder I keep which contains all of my favourite sketches, as it is a great one for using up scraps.... and I could really do with using up some scraps!

Goodie List........
Stamps:
Miss Anya by The Greeting Farm - available from Dies to Die For.
Paper: Basic Grey - Urban Prairie, Bazzill CS.
Ink & Colour: Memento (Tuxedo Black), Copic Markers, Copic Spica pen.
Embellishments & Tools: Curved Rectangle Nestabilities, Prima flowers, Papermania pearl brads and adhesive pearls from stash.

Ali and I have a bit of an in-joke that relates to this card. Basically, I always tend to match my eyeshadow to the top I am wearing. If I'm wearing a green top, the sparkly green eyeshadow appears. If it is a blue top, sparkly blue eyeshadow gets slapped on my lids. Consequently, Ali was immensely happy to see that I carried this attention to detail (or insanity?!) through to my card making.... turquoise dress, turquoise eyes!

Hope your week is going well - I'm looking forward to the weekend already!
