Gorjuss Bear Hug

What is this weather like? I got a bit of a surprise, yesterday when I looked out and saw snow and a blizzard! Wasn't happy about this as Susan and Lily were supposed to be coming through! Amazingly, Susan decided to drive through anyway and actually had an ok journey both ways and we had a lovely catch up. The blizzard continued all day so there was quite a bit of snow to plough through at school time, but thankfully, I managed to reach the rucksack in the loft, so I could carry Euan to collect Louise, rather than struggling with the pushchair.

Today, it's still snowing really wet snow and we're walking in about 10cm of slush - lovely.

But anyway, on to the card:

I really love this stamp - Gorjuss Bear Hug - so cute! She's been coloured with whispers markers and gloss, then Promarker over her hair. And her outfit has been paper-pieced using Pink Parfait papers. The large flower was Sizzix'd from a cardboard coffee cup holder covered in paper . I was originally trying to make a bracelet but it wasn't too successful, although I like the thicker flower! The turquoise paper is a Prima Mary Jane paper and the pink paper is from Mel.

The following challenges will be entered:
Crazy for Challenges 25: the wonderful sketch I followed
Totally Gorjuss: Flower Power (on her dress as well as in the layout)
Crafty Cardmakers: Split complimentary using the red/green-blue/yellow-green parts

Definitely had a bit of a pink and turquoise thing going on this week. Love the combo and I decided I would just "tidy" the bits onto other cards rather than my paper draw. Gorjuss Purrfect Friend (thanks, Clare) and Gorjuss Party Princess images, coloured with Promarkers.
