You're Remarkable

Thank you all so much for your kind words about Bramble, they really do help. 
Whilst not feeling like crafting too much at the moment, The new sketch over at CAS(E) this sketch spoke to me this week, although I went a bit off piste with it in the end, so feel free to delete my entry if I've gone too far. 
I had three left over Hunkydory Misfit Monsters left on my desk, and thought I could use one for this sketch. I had a rummage through my pixie powder backgrounds and found this one that had been made with a hexagon stencil. I trimmed it down to fit on my 5x7 card blank and glued it in place. I cut a strip of black paper and stamped the sentiment from a Woodware set and heat embossed it in white and added it to the card. I doodled borders on the card in black and white gel pens. Originally, I intended to just add one monster to the card to represent the circle in the sketch. I added him with foam tape, but the two monsters left on the desk kept staring at me. I ended up with a monster pyramid! I added some glossy accents to their eyes and horns to finish. A final photo to show you the shimmer from the pixie powders.

  5. What a fun card, Cara, love those like monsters. How could you've possibly have left two of the monsters on your desk staring up at you. They were meant to stay together! xx

  6. Hi Cara,
    I quite agree how could you leave the other 2 on your desk when they were just asking to be included in your super card.
    Love the pixie background, and of course the Monsters, and also your sentiment is so brilliant.
    Love and big crafty hugs. Jenny L.
