Little Red Wagon - Sketch

This image, which I had coloured, cut and mounted appeared on my desk today. I don't know where it had been hiding, or where it had fallen from, but I decided to use it and found that the sketch from Little Red Wagon's Challenge would be perfect for it.
The stamp itself is by Imaginations and was sent to me as a freebie with an auction I won from a US eBay seller some time ago. There are still lots of generous people around!
I thought that I would also enter it for the Ribbons and bows challenge at Stampin' for the Weekend.
It is mounted on a Nestie frame, which is in turn on a piece of card embossed with a Cuttlebug Embossing folder and edged with a Stampin' Up punch. The ribbons consist of a narrow piece of satin over a wider piece of organza, with some lengths of satin ribbon used to attach the buttons.
The background paper is a scrap from a Cuddly Buddly download.
I think it looks quite fresh and delicate, and could be used for a variety of occasions.

  3. You've certainly come back with a bang Chrissie. I love the simplicity of this card. I try to think of how the card will look when standing on a mantlepiece and whether it will stand out and I think this card will do very nicely. Very pretty.
