First Challenge of 2009 Papertake Weekly

I am trying to get back into the challenge mode and out of Christmas mode! I need quite a few cards for Jan & Feb so will have to get to it! My first challenge of the year is Papertake Weekly and it was to complete a card using this scrumdiddlyumptious sketch from the super talented Dawny P !
To ease me back into non Christmas cards I reached for the trusty Doodlebug and eased my way into the cutting, sticking, stamping and colouring! (well that's all it boils down too... but it sounds a little childish when you say it like that! LOL). I also have to express my concern that I feel a bit left behind using water colouring pencils to colour my images, but I can't seem to get on with copics/promarkers!!! So I suppose I'll have to stick with what I'm comfortable with for the moment and then move on when I have passed my pen phobia!
I have used a Forever Friends stamp and added some DB glitter to the flowers. The papers are all doodlebug as well as the dotty flower, the smaller ones are from my prima stash. They are all secured by a super scrumptious sugar coated doodlebug brad. The greeting is from my stash and the little dots around the pale blue panel are done with......you guessed it Doodlebug glitter!
