Sketch Saturday card!

Here is my entry for this weeks sketch saturday challenge!

I can't decide whether to give it to my grandma of my auntie as their birthday's are both in a few weeks, within 2 days of each other and they both like cats! Oh dilema!! :-)

The papers are papermania and basic grey sugared. Brown 'legless brads' are from the toffee treats bag available from craftwork cards and I have added glossy accents to them. Image is penny black and has been coloured with my distress inks. Matted onto brown CS. The scallops were created with my SU scallop border punch. The sentiment is from my new SU Sincere Salutations set which I got from Jules. I can highly recommend SU products, especially the stamps. They are such fabulous quality and great value for money. Head over to Jules' blog to browse the latest SU catalouge!

My boyfriend said he doesn't like this card. It made me pretty mad as I liked it until he said that. Now I'm not so sure!

Hope you are all well! I'm having a day off of studying, hence 3 posts in one day!! :-)

Hugs, Vicky x

I think our lads need their heads bashing together, don't you? I love it, the DP is gorgeous and really works with the cute kitty image. Tell him to go wash his specs, and if he hasn't got none he needs to get to Specsavers lol
