Checks Galore!!

..is the challenge today at A Spoonful Of Sugar. Well mine is not checks galore because the only check paper I could find is the paper I have used on the past two cards I made!! I didn't want to use the same paper again!!! So I used this Basic Grey paper and the one piece had a somewhat check design on it so I went with that. Then I stamped a check design on the yellow paper to make sure I got some "true" checks in there. I cut some diecuts for the flowers using my Cuttlebug and the sentiment is from Papertrey ink. I had to paint a spot in yellow so I could stamp a visible sentiment. I again went over the outside of my flowers with the glitter pen. I have used a sketch by Katharina. She has a bunch of beautiful sketches on her blog that are so worth looking at!! I colored my Sugar Nellie image in with prismas and gamsol! I also colored the flowers in with some paint to match the yellow!! The ticket is a stamp from Autumn Leaves.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great night!!

Another winner! You are such an inspiration (and an enabler I must say... I keep checking the Sugar Nellie sight to see when the Sweet Ebony line is back in stock!)

BTW I made another card with one of your images.
