is it so hard to get a card to come together right sometimes?
Hello blogworld,
Want to see a wasted day - here you go:
All day colouring it - ended up don't like it, doesn't look right. I also ended up going completely off the sketch the challenge it was meant for gave so I can't use it there.
Try again tomorrow.

Hello blogworld,

All day colouring it - ended up don't like it, doesn't look right. I also ended up going completely off the sketch the challenge it was meant for gave so I can't use it there.
Try again tomorrow.
I used:
Stamp:
Sugar Nellie - Leanne Ellis: Faraway Thoughts
coloured with my Pro and Flexmarkers
Dies:
Memory Box - part of Rivera Corner
and Marshmallow clouds
Papers:
First Edition - Summer Breeze
Anything else?
Craftwork cards - sentiment
pearls from my stuff
Lost while making:
My temper!!
I'll be back when I'm in a better mood and I might or might not pop it in a challenge, lets see if I like it in a couple of hours.

Ooh Sarah...you do make me LOL...Your card is gorgeous hun...and the image so beautifully coloured too :o)
hope you are having a nice cuppa now...and feeling better about your card....
big hugs Vicky xx
The image is gorgeous! Beautifully coloured.
To me, the sentiment and the cloud don't seem as anchored as everything else.
What if you either added some extra kraft matting somewhere
Or
ditch the kraft cloud and do it over with another paper.
Hope I do not offend as I am not a very good card maker compared to you...but sometimes I wish I had another set of eyes to look at mine when i am making them.
Sometimes I craft with my neighbour once a week. But not for several weeks now. It seems either she or her children have horrid chesty, coughing colds for weeks...I could not take a chance on getting that as my surgery would have been cancelled. And now, I can't cough yet, so no crafty fun starting back up yet...I miss bouncing ideas off each other as we work.
You and me, both! I've spent 3 hours, this afternoon, trying to get a DT card together for next week...hated the image I've got to play with, don't like the theme, and nothing is coming together...given up now, and leaving it till tomorrow....then might just bin it...hahaa!
As for your little doozy....I'd say nowt up with it, except maybe add a darker mat to the image? But, hey...hark at me...about to bin mine...lol!
Hi Sarah. Such a pretty card and so very delicate. Love the image also.
Happy crafting.
Love Sandra xx
Oh yes, I have days (and cards) like that... very frustrating it is too! Your card looks lovely though :o) Gorgeous image and papers, and love the dies you've used. Hugs, Lisa x
This is just gorgeous ,love the image and fab papers.xxx

Hi Sarah.....I've had a few days like that recently....my heads full of so much other rubbish! Love your card though, that image is gorgeous, don't remember seeing that one before!

Your cards are gorgeous Sarah so stop worrying about them. Love this image and the papers.
Hugs Sharon. x
Me again! Thanks for the kind comments today on my blog...Just wanted to add Little Miss C would never wear that dress to school or even a friends Birthday party either...
She would only wear it to a gala type party at her Mums or Dad's work or the big lavish type parties that are popular at Christmas. Or maybe church and supper on Christmas Day.
It might get worn for a Santa picture although last years Santa pictures were on a pony with Santa beside the animal!!! I guess it is a bit too dressy for that...teehee
Otherwise she is legging and tee's too! Or lately I notice leggings, tee and a ruffly skirt overtop of the leggings.
Well, I recognise those kind of crafting sessions all too well! And it doesn't matter how much I say this card works really well, you've decided your not happy with it, so that's it! ;) x
I don't see whats wrong, the image is colour beautifully and I love the papers so as far as I'm concerned your card is gorgeous.
luv
Debby

Sarah if that's a wasted day then all I can say it was wasted in a beautiful way just love the colours and the image you have used in this card. Wonderful. Alison xxx
It's gorgeous Sarah... stop tormenting yourself!! But I know what you mean about taking a long time... some of my cards feel like I'm laying eggs... then when they're made, I don't want to part with them!! LOL
Big hugs

I recognise the anguish Sarah - I regularly feel this way! However you are way too hard on yourself this is blooming gorgeous! Wonderfully coloured, beautiful papers and embellishments, great layout - it's gorgeous! Karen x
What are we like Sarah, it's not just me then that's having what feels like wasted days,I can not seem to be able to put anything together at the moment that I like even a little bit.
Your card is gorgeous, love the image and it's coloured beautifully, fab hair.

This is very pretty sarah i love the flourishes and the cloud, I bet you will look at it more and more and it will grow on you! hugs rebekah xx
Sorry, but I can't spot a single thing wrong with your card. It's gorgeous! Beautifully coloured.
Hugs, Dawn
This is gorgeous sweetie, love the image & love the whole softness of this. Its so so pretty shug.
Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx
I like her, even though you've used **** I think you've captured the essence of the stamp with your layout.
As far as sketches go - I start off with one, and it almost never turns out how I intended it to so I wouldn't worry about that. Or if I do get it the same, by the time I post it on my blog it's too late to use it!!

Really gorgeous, I love that flourish and the image is beautiful
