Me again folks.
I see all my lovely followers have gone walkabout again - blooming blogger. I noticed a new follower and would love to welcome him or her ...... if only I knew who it was - welcome to you if you joined in the last 24 hours. Perhaps there's a coach trip of followers headed to the seaside ..... (nice link if I say so myself!!!!)

After the fiendish monogram theme of last week - which stumped many a LIM-ette. I have to confess, me included, I'm so glad that I checked the site BEFORE I stuck down my own version of illuminated letters and still had the chance to change it! Oops. Still, a challenge that takes you out of your comfort zone in to unknown territory is often a good thing - a chance to use a technique or image you might not otherwise. I went with Mickey Mouse - an image I had owned for years but probably only ever used two or three times - Yay Mandi and Chrissie and thanks for making me dust off Mickey! It came as quite a relief, however, this week to have a super sketch to follow. I do love this LIM challenge and have, so far, managed to enter every one and some waaaaaaaaaaaay more than once! - this may be one of those weeks! Not come across this challenge before?, then pop over and check it out - here or you could check out the head LIM-ettes individual blogs, Chrissie and Mandi
Materials used:
- 15cm square 300gsm scalloped white card and envelope
- Black card panel
- Blue card panel, with corners rounded
- Three white 300gsm die cut circles
- Crafty Individuals seagulls and sentiment and All Night Media shell inked in memento tuxedo black on the circles
- Crafty individuals sentiment inked in memento tuxedo black directly on to card blank
Hope you like it and I hope my fellow LIM-ettes do too. I shall also be entering this for the Sketch free sketchie challenge over on Craft Mad & Loving It.
Anyway, how's your Saturday coming along? All craft-y is it? My hubby appears to have man-flu but has struggled manfully off to the flying field thus leaving me free (AGAIN?) to craft to my little hearts content.
