Life is beautiful

Hello ...
If you are looking for my post on Our Beautiful World - please scroll down...

I'm squeezing in a card for 2  3 challenges (thanks to my blog friend Lisette) ... A colour challenge at Colour Me which finishes tomorrow 


A sketch challenge at CAS(E) This Sketch


And a Stencils and Mask challenge at That's Crafty!


Here's my card


Sponging, stencilling, Glossy accents and glitter....


You can't really see from my photo how glossy those little cats are ... I cut them on the Cameo and coloured them before adding gloss
The stencilled brick was done with embossing paste mixed with a little distress stain (Fired Brick) and of course I sponged the BG before stencilling and adding glitter to the stars


To finish I typed a sentiment on my computer and printed it onto acetate then die cut it

I hope you are enjoying your day - Thanks for your visit

Till soon

~ Ros ~
