Happy New Year Card

Today is the start of a new "Stella Says Sketch" challenge over at Catch the Bug and this is my Guest Designer card, using this image. I thoght he would make a sweet image on a New Year's card. He's colored with Promarkers.


Even though I'm a DP addict, I have used none on this card. The black background is embossed with a Spellbinders embossing folder and is attached to a panel of silver mirri card for a bit of shine. Again I've used my Marianne die cut frame, I even used the cut out part, which is also embossed. The silver frame I created using black paper covered with silver EP.
The black lace I bought on one my travels, I believe it was Riga. I actually buy most of my lace abroad as there are still small secialist sewing stores to b found and they have really good prices.
I used letter stickers to make the sentiment. I also added two gemstones from my stash.

This card is also for these challenges:
1) Simply Create Too - #76 Let's Celebrate
2) 4 Crafty Chicks - #227 Celebrations
3) Aud Sentiments Challenge - #122 Use the word NEW
4) Crafter's Cafe - #97 New

    Hi Pia, hope you enjoyed your Christmas and all the best for the coming year. Time is racing away so fast lately. Love the cute rabbit on your delightful card. Fab die cut and love the use of the embossed panel and cut out piece. Great idea to put it back in the frame. Thanks for sharing with us at Aud Sentiments this fortnight and we hope to see you again soon.
    Hugs,
    Sandy
