So when it was time to make the card for Sentimental Sundays Challenge, I just could not face any complicated colouring. Had a rummage through my old stamp folders and found those cute but very simple to colour stamps from Doodle Factory:
Here you go, clueless dragon and chubby knight. Hope it's just what you needed to make your Sunday complete!
I ran a piece of gold mirror card through with embossing folder, dabbed it randomly with Versamark pad and sprinkled with black sparkly embossing powder. Heat gun and voilà - grungy ornate background. The rest of papers are from DCWV Naturals pad.
The sentiment is a rub on from don't-remember-who-from and they're bloody lucky I don't. Rotten quality. Border punch EK Success. The only embellies are some tiny gold brads and couple of vintage buttons. Just snipped the backs off and stuck them on with the strongest glue I have (that stuff, I bloody swear by it!).
Copic colours:
C8/7/5/3/1/00, YR23, Y17, YR24, Y32, YR31, Y28, Y18, BG99, YG67, G85, YG17, YG13

I agree with Anne and if this is what you can do when you feel rotten, then I am giving up and switching to underwater basket weaving:) Very cute card and I thank you for the design tips. The Mother in me says that you need to get some rest so you can get better.

Oh, honey, so sorry to hear you are feeling so lousy. If this is your idea os simple...well, I 'd better give up or just not be "troubled with great ambitions"---following the likes of you!!! You have a wonderful gift, my friend. Every creation, a treasure!
