Sweet Sketch Wednesday Sketch #204 QKR Stampede

Good morning we are in our second week of school holidays and the boys go back to school next week wow that time has gone so quickly.  I wanted to spend some time up at the beach house with the boys but the weather hasn't been the best, so I would rather be stuck indoors here at home as there's more to do than relaxing doing nothing up at the beach well at least today the sun is shinning. LOL

Today being Wednesday 1st May 2013 means it's another wonderful Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  May already where have those months gone?

Congratulations to our winner and to our top 3 cards awesome work ladies wow your a talented lot, I've just loved looking at your cards.

GUESS WHAT ???

We have a new Sponsor this week it's QKR Stampede and I just adore the image over there by Tina Keller.  

This image I've used is called

 Digi Ragdoll Stringing Buttons.

This image brought back so many memories from my childhood.

I had a Rag-doll that looked very similar to this one and I've coloured her in similar colours.  When I was little I remember sitting in mums sewing room stringing buttons onto a piece of string.  It would have kept me entertained and quiet for hours whilst she got on with her sewing she was amazing.  I knew I just had to have this image.

This wonderful sketch of Sally Dube's is just so perfect for my image.  It's very easy and looks great showing off all your wonderful design papers.  There are three separate squares under the image.
