My card today is for 'Papertake Weekly' which is a lovely sketch challenge. You can use any sketch as long as it is one of the Papertake sketches. I chose to use sketch #80. The nice thing about sketches is they give you a good starting point, especially when Mr. Mojo has gone walk about, I love using them. I really enjoyed making this card, the flowers were cut out with a Joy Die, really want to have a go at making some flowers, I have some gorgeous dies which I haven't known how to use properly so have been on the internet for some tutorials, so watch this space lol!!.. The gorgeous hearts are a Marianne die and I have ruffed up all the black card with some sand paper and scissors, the card is by Tim Holtz and is a dream to use for this sort of thing. The gorgeous papers are from LOTV designed by Mary Fran. The image is from one of LOTV art pads.
This is the sketch which I turned around so that the side was at the top

My card is about sending someone special hugs so I would just like to send some special hugs to Mary, Andrea and Family from the ribbon girl. Mary sadly lost her husband last week and I would just like to say you are all in my thoughts and prayers. xx
That's it for today guys, you all take care,
Love and Hugs,
