WOJ ~ Sketch By Katharina + Guest DT Call

Hi everyone hope you're all well and had a good week..... Well its not been such a good week for me as I knocked my Pelvic out of line 2 days ago .... yes I know your thinking OMG how did you do that.... well honestly, I don't know.... but after treatment with my fabulous Osteopath (who used more technical terms) has manged to click it back into place, but not without a little pain along the way. So I've been on pain killers and resting since... but am glad to say I am on the mend, and manged to sit for a while and join in this weeks fabulous sketch by Katharina (although its the longest I've taken to make a card)... But I blame the pain for that ..

WOJ Challenge

And here's Katharina's fabulous sketch

I had lots of fun with this one and will definately be using it again ~ thanks Katharina.

And as I received all my wonderful goodies from Katharina yesterday including the Spring Club Kit ~ which is truely wonderful, I couldn't wait to ink them up and have a play.

This little sweetie is one of them.... Isn't she just gorgeous !! ~Willow with flower Basket~

I wanted to try something different for this card and choose a colour scheme I haven't used before but also wanted to try out some of my new papers I brought by K&Co ~ Blue Awning.

I thought at first that the dark blue and brown would look to much, so thats why I added the pale blue to her top and some flowers, and for the first time in a while I am really pleased with the end result.

And I even managed to decorated the inside, although I kept it simple...

Katharina is looking for a Guest Designer for 2 months for WOJ Stamps and you will be required to join in the Design Team Project of the Month, you will also receive any new stamps that are release during that period ~ so if your interested, why not pop over and check out all the details HERE. and don't forget to check out all the fabulous work again by the Design Team.
