Daring Card Makers Challenge ~ Arrows

I made this a couple of weeks ago for a friend, and I am so pleased to have an excuse to give it another airing! It's one of my favourites, though I say so myself. It fits the new Daring card Makers' challenge posted today, which calls for the use of arrows.

The arrow I used here was painted with fuchsia pink acrylic paint, then I dotted it with white Sakura Soufflé pen.

It was the first time I had used a Sarah Kay stamp, and I loved her, so will definitely be re-visiting this stamp again in the near future!

Hi Christine!

Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. I decided to come track you down to thank you.

I appears you are very talented! Your card is simply precious. Lucky is the one to be on the receiving end of it. I am so busy designing I don't get much time to actually MAKE layouts and crafts LOL! An vicious cycle.

I hope you have a good day, and thanks for sharing.

Warmly,
Barb (Mrs. Miles)

I love this card. I'm partial to Sarah Kay anyway, and love the way you coloured her. The arrow is really funky, I love the spots on it too.

Love Debbie xx

Beautiful card, love it all, but particularly the unusual uneven border - must try that sometime!
