G is for Gnome

 Good morning friends, It's half way through the month of May and there is still 13 days left to get your project in for the G is for Gnome challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

Look at Edna with her little gnomies

 I was well on my way two weeks ago to have my card ready for the SoSS blog but I just couldn't pull it off in time for the 6.30 launch so decided a mid-challenge reminder would work as well. Now the warmer weather is trying to arrive it's time to think about summer and the cottage, I'm hoping to make up kits to take with me to cut down on the amount of paper/inks/cardstock/stamp and dies to take. 

In getting ready for the challenge I had everything picked out and as I went to colour the gnome I realized I needed a card for a May birthday so I know the recipient loves purple (like me) and then to even stress myself more I decided to make it shaker card.  The birthday coverplate die is perfect for a quick card (unless you make it into a shaker) just 2 co-ordinating cardstock and a focal point. The sentiment came with the set. 

I finished the inside of the card with a party hat stamp and a Hero Arts vertical sentiment. 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope I have inspired you to make a gnome project and display it on our SoSS blog, you have until May 31st @ 11.59 p.m.
