Maggie with Flowers

Hello all, We have had such a glorious day here in N London but the sun just never managed to peep out properly - such a shame! I hope is stays nice for the weekend so that we can get out for a long walk. The cats have had great fun today as they haven't been able to get out over the last few days due to the inclement weather here but it is so nice to see them out running around chasing leaves etc. I hope you have all had a good day weatherwise wherever you are.

Today's card is for 2 challenges:~
Charisma Cardz No 40 Autumn Colours and
The Sugar Bowl Autumn using a Sketch & Sugar Nellie image.

Using Maggie with Flowers from their Home Grown range (coloured with PMs), and following their sketch, I used BP from Papermania's Hampstead A Warm Welcome that I won in a recent blog candy from Sue. The papers are mounted onto brown pearlised paper and then onto cream linen cardstock which I edged with Whispers Archival Inks. Maggie's dress and bows are paper-pieced using the same paper and she too is mounted onto pearlised paper which was inked using same archival ink.
I also cut some of the pearlised paper using my new Xcut edger but it got stuck inside and tore a wee bit (its so obvious but I love the card so much I am not going to change it), and it was the last of my brown pearlised!! The sentiment is computer-generated using Angelina font in brown also edged in archival ink.
