For Week #104 the LIM girls have on offer a sweet little sketch drawn by Jen.
The instructions are very simple:
Make sure that the card stays in this
orientation so that the band remains in the horizontal plane, in the
lower part of the card and that it takes up no more than 1/3rd of the
height of the cardbase.
With this in mind I'm not quite sure how my 'band' crept a little up the card - I think it happened during the masking process! The sweet stamp is from Art Journey and is called 'Gorgeous Kids', and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. I needed to do plenty of masking with this one, which I do enjoy but find tricky. I added some scoring to give added definition to the panel.
I have a real passion for turquoise (did you guess???) and so found myself swooooooning at the colour of the newly arrived library shelves.
Here's Mark, our lovely Caretaker beginning the assembly job. I can't wait to see the finished result, and neither can the kids as they've been pressing their noses against the glass panel in the door all day!

Loving your card, and haven't the stamps got the most appropriate name "gorgeous"
Ooh, I love this! It looks fab in turquoise (one of my favourite colours too). And the scoring makes the panel stand out so well.
The turquoise is gorgeous Jo,especially on the white. Perfect CAS style and a great job on the masking too. Hugs!
