PS Sparks - October Designer Drafts

Happy Monday to you :0)
A new week sees the start of a new challenge at the Paper Smooches Sparks blog and sketch week has come around again.... it's another good one for you CAS lovers out there :0)



I seem to be in Christmas mode at the moment and decided on an ironic sentiment for this glum looking Walrus from Chilly Chums.... not sure if he's fed-up or tired but he looks how I feel after a Christmas shopping trip in December, I know that for sure!!!!


The lights were fiddly, but fun to cut out and I used the trick of rubbing Studio Matt medium onto thin hemp twine so I could shape the twists and turns as I wrapped it around the walrus's body... it really is a great way to persuade it to do what you want it to do :0)

Hop over to the Sparks blog for the details and check out the rest of the DT's cards or use the links here

Thanks for looking and see you in the gallery :0)

  3. Happy Monday to you jenny and thanks for making me smile. Your walrus really does look glum but with those bright lights am sure he won't be like that for long. Maybe he's afraid of being electrocuted ! Fab and fun card I love it
