Colour Create /Sketch Saturday challenge card


This week's challenge at Colour Create is to use red and green with the added option of "wings" and I really didn't want to make a Christmas card at this time of year so I came up with a "picnic" theme. I had a little piece of red gingham and thought it would make a good little jam cover........so I drew a pot of strawberry jam,scone and knife.The wings come in the shape of a little ladybird I made out of Fimo!
I was able to incorporate all this into the layout for Sketch Saturday

Papers......Crafters companion
Image.......my own sketch coloured with Promarkers
