Sketh N stash.......

Went to the hobby show at the nec yesterday, not as big a show as the November one but still managed to spend too many pennies......lol. I did manage to get my hands on some of the new acrylic paints that Paperartsy have just brought out,well to be honest my daughter brought them for me for Mothers Day, they have a lovely chalky finish and can be stamped on as well as mixed together for lovely colours, I think that these will be really popular as they have a lovely fininsh for backgrounds to tags. My daughter and I had a little go at parchment craft on the Pergamano stand, I really struggled with cutting, eyes are not what they used to be, the work on the dispaly stands was amazing, so intricate.
 Its Monday.....again, and that means we have a new challenge another at Sketch N Stash, we have a lovely sketch for you by Vicky, and this weeks sponsers are  Meljens Designs and Simon Says, don't forget to tell us your old or new stash that you've used.


For my card I've used papers from Papermania.....Henbury Lane, the Pansy image has been coloured using H2O's and Sakura pens, the punch is from Martha Stewart, the sentiment has been alcohol inked for colour.
