Karens Doodles UK 5th challenge

It's time for a new challenge at Karen's Doodles UK and this week we have a recipe for you - 1 image, 2 papers and 3 embellishments. Now I must admit I generally run a mile when I see a recipe challenge, they're really not my favourite things and usually my cards do not turn out well! So I'm pleasantly surprised with my card, I'm quite happy with it :o)

I've used this cute bear which was actually a freebie from Karen's Doodles, coloured with promarkers. The papers are from a My Mind's Eye pad that was free with a magazine, cardstock is coredinations. I used an inverted corner punch around the image. The flowers are a mix of Green Tara and Papermania, with Craftwork Cards card candy centres, sentiment is also from Craftwork Cards.

I'm also entering my card for the following challenges:

• Paper Sundaes - lovely sketch
• KL Stampin & Scrappin - as luck would have it, the same recipe that we have for Karen's Doodles!
• Pollycraft - anything goes
• Charisma Cardz - animal magic
• I love promarkers - animals

Well we're off for our little overnight trip soon, so I apologise if I don't get around all your blogs - we might have internet connection in the hotel later but otherwise I'll try to catch up when I get back tomorrow evening. We're off to Chester and will be spending tomorrow at the zoo, although I must admit I'm not feeling very enthusiastic today as my cold has really kicked in and I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself! Must pack the Lemsip :o)
