Today's card is for two challenges,
Truly Scrumptious challenge 15 a sketch and the theme of "Indian Summer", sponsored this week by Home Impressions with a cute set of "Jack & Jill" stamps.
Stampin for the Weekend challenge 14, colours "pink, teal & orange" sponsored this week by The Craft Barn £15 voucher.
I have used my new Sugar Nellie Manga girl stamp, coloured with promarkers, the patterned paper is from a magazine freebie but the colours and pattern work well for the Indian Summer theme, DCWV card, retro flower punches, stickles stardust glitter glue, victorian & swiss dots embossing folders, card candy. I really like the way this card has turned out with these colours its an unusual combination for me.I think it will be a quiet week for my blog this week as Philip starts nursery tomorrow, he should have gone today but no one told us?? So I will be spending my mornings helping the support person to get to know Philip and how to help him get around and communicate, but well worth it as I will have *5* mornings for me!! I have got to make some more cards for the neo-natal unit as they have asked for more, its just 7 weeks since I took around 50-60 cards, I don't like it when they are busy like this as I know only too well that its not all happy endings.
Thanks for stopping by,

Beautifully coloured image & fab use of embossing folders, love it!
I love this card it's so bright and cheerful. The Manga images seem to suit bright colours don't they. And Lucy looks so smart in her uniform. Hope Philip gets on ok when he starts nursery tomorrow.

Hi Angela - just gorgeous and that freebie paper is stunning (not often upir can say that - is it?)Love the colours and that cute Manga girl (waiting for mine to arrive - all seems to take so long to reach Germany - perhaps I should move back to UK).
