Something a little bit cute....

Hello there...yes its me...back again!

Instead of going to bed like a good girl last night, I decided to make another card! Hee, hee!! I do love it when the crafting bug bites!

I have a confession to make...I'm a tad bit silly and I read the Cupcake Craft Challenge this week as a grey and lilac colour combo challenge....probably because I love lilac and purple so much! So off I went and made the cup of tea card yesterday in perfect lilac and yellow...then I went to link it up at Cupcake and guess what....I'd got the colours wrong...well at least one of them! The challenge is in fact yellow and grey!! I still don't know how I confused grey and purple!!

Anway, here sporting the correct colours is my card for today.....

 
Now I'm not sure what it is about this card, but I am really pleased with it. I'm not sure if its that super cute birdie image....or the gorgeous papers or the fab colour combo (why have I never used yellow and grey together before??). But I really love this card!
 
I've coloured my image with my Promarkers and I've been trying to experiement more with shading and using the pens properly. I'm quite pleased with how Mr Birdie has turned out. I've used a plain yellow and plain grey paper, as well as two gorgeous patterened papers for my background. My sentiment is stamped.
 
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
 
Cupcake Craft Challenges - yellow and grey
