SSW2 155 with Cute as a Button

It's been a while but here I am with my latest card for our challenge over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2. We are sponsored by Cute as a Button and I chose this image called Anne. I couldn't resist really especially as she reminds me of the Anne of Green Gables books which is quite appropriate as tomorrow is World Book Day.
I coloured her with my Zig Clean Colour pens - I think I overdid the eyebrows - and paper pieced her dress with now discontinued papers from Lili of the Valley but I have lots of their papers so they have to be used.

We had a lovely day at Stamperama in Harrogate on Saturday, it was quite busy but we managed to buy a few new stamps and dies between us and a couple of lovely papercraft kits. I really must blog more. It's been so long that I certainly have plenty of cards to share.

Thank you for dropping in to visit and for any comments you are kind enough to leave.

I will be entering my card in the following challenges
