Happy Chinese New Year

Good Morning all,
I'm back with another card to share with you!
This one is for Chinese New Year!
So to everyone who celebrates,
"Gong Hay Fat Choy!"
I'm hoping it's okay as I normally use traditional red & gold but
I just really wanted to play with these colours this time!


2015 is the Year of the Sheep (or Goat) & I thought this little pair
Even better, you can pick them up for free at the moment!
I used my promarkers to shade them a little, then cut out with a Spellbinders  
die then inked with distress ink whilst still in the die.
The sentiment was done on the PC.
The gorgeous papers came my way when a DT friend Sammy, was having a 
blog candy giveaway, so I'm sorry I can't tell you where they are from!


I finished off the card with three buttons from my stash.
I didn't have time to decorate the inside as I wanted to catch the light,
but I have done so now!
Thanks for popping by, I hope you like my little creation!
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

DoubleClick Skittles - Use Any Animal

  2. This made me smile, such a great image !!
    Sorry to hear you was unwell, so many people seem to have got this year off with being poorly, I haven't been about much as my health is being a total pain in the bum so there has been a lack of crafting.
    Anyway, I hope you are well hun xxx
