CES Challenge - Anything but a square

Good Morning Everyone! I hope you had a good week. I have been busy this week so I am glad the weekend is finally here. I have a day of crafting lined up today catching up on DT work and Magazine commissions then I am going out for a drink tonight with my lovely Hubby.
Saturday is CES Challenge day and the theme this week is ....'Anything but a square'. I love square cards but also love making shaped cards with my Nesties so I have used one of my new Spellbinders Grand Nesties to cut a large scalloped circle card.

I used Echo Park Metropolitan and Candy Shoppe papers to cover the card and then coloured in Poorly Chester from Pollycraft to match with my Promarkers. I stamped a Hero Arts Sentiment and cut it out with a Spellbinders labek die and added Chester and the sentiment to the card with foam pads before adding glossy accents to Chester's eyes. The finishing touch was a stripy bow made from ribbon from my stash.
I hope you will be able to join us for this week's Challenge for the chance to win a £10 voucher (not incl P&P) from Crafty Emma's Store:


Make sure you check out the Challenge blog for all the details and lots of inspiration from the DT!
Have a great Saturday!

    Wow - what a cutie and I love the blue / red colour combi. At the moment a Grand Calibur and Grand Nestabilities are on my wish list, but it's my birthday next month, so, you never know, may be I'll get lucky!
