I can't sew

I cannot sew to save my life, so please don't look at my sewing on this card too closely. Actually I don't think one can miss it, lol! I went somewhat skew, and the funny thing is, usually the cards look better in real life, which is true in this case too, cause this photo makes it look SO much worse than it really is. Honest!!!

For this card I used a sketch my fellow Bella Babe Paula used some time ago. I have been eyeing it for ages now, and finally today I decided to use it. I also decided to enter this card in for the Crafty Catz challenge, this week their theme is dottie. See all the dots on my card, if you can draw your eyes away from my sewing, you'll see it, honest.

The image is a reasonably new one from Stamping Bella called Henriette Lulu. There are a few of them in the range, and they are just adorable. Go see, but be warned you will want them, all! I coloured the image with prismacolor pencils, blended it with grumtine (gamsol or sansador), and cut it with a round nestie. The sewing was done with my mother's sewing machine, and I love sewing on cards, just don't do it often cause 1. I'm bad at it, and 2. the sewing room is upstairs and my hobby room is down stairs. Lazy, I know.

This week's theme at the Bellaland is ANYTHING - ** A WILD CARD **. Isn't that cool, you can do whatever your little heart desires. I love the idea, except now I have to think.

That's it from me for tonight, I am ready for bed, and the thunder is not fun at all. We get really bad thunder hear in Jo'burg, and even though I should be used it, after ALL these years, lol, it still frightens me.

Sweet dreams, when you get there.
