sketch saturday # 53


good morning to you all on this fab day, hubby's got the bbq at the ready and we are having elle and bailey over so a lovely day to be had by (not much crafting will get done tho!!!) woke up early again (lily's gone back to bed now) so i got stuck in on this card. this week the sketch saturday crew are celebrating their first birthday so congrats to them. the image is from sir stampalot called 'cook's mannequin' and it fits in with the papers from K & Co' cut n paste range, and both have that lovely heart warming feel of the '50's about them. i got the paper from charmed cards & carfts the card stock is whitewash from core'dinations and i am really loving them. have a great sunday i so don't want to go back to school tomorrow, round 2 of gcse's. thanks for popping by xx
