Friday Sketchers Challenge

Today was a fun crafting day. I go to a craftclub every monday, and it's a group of lovely ladies! Unfortunatly they are doing work to the building where we go, so I arranged an extra table and some chairs and invited everyone over at my house! It was nice to see some of the ladies again :) (Not everyone was able to come.)
I started making this card for Friday Sketchers Challenge, and I am very pleased with the result. As always, the picture does not do it justice.

I used another beautiful image from Penny Black (I bought them at the KreaDoe craft fair in Holland, and now so regret only buying 2!!) and colored these girls with Promarkers. Cut them out with a Spellbinders Nestability, and made a Faux Nestie to layer them on. Got this pretty lace also from the craftfair. Used a Martha Stewart punch to create the lace-border-look, and for the matting and layering I used Distress Inks on white paper, to match it with my old-stash-patterend paper! Finished it off with some bling Hot-Fix stones.
