Get Creative - April card sketch challenge

Good morning!!!

I hope this post is published correctly as it is a scheduled one. You see, by this time I'll be flying to London - not a business trip this time, a friend of mine is getting married so I'm going to enjoy London as a tourist for once!

So... time for a card, don't you think? I've been carried away with layouts lately, but I don't forget my first love!

Today we have another great card sketch challenge at Get Creative! The sketch is the following:




Based on the sketch, I made the following card:





As you can see, I changed the sketch into a landscape mode. The table lamp shades are chipboard by  Sfragidomania - "Table lamp shades set". Don't they have great details? I dressed the top part with paper and I painted their bases with red acrylic paint (the red one) and Distress Stain (the brown ones). I used my favourite Vintage Photo Distress Ink all around the shades and the card itself. You can see the details here:




Of course, I had to use some sewing around the card, since it fitted the style of the card and I'm in love with sewing! ;ο)

I hope you like it!

We'll be waiting!

Hugs,
