Sweet and Sassy - Oldie but Goodie

Good morning all I hope you have all had a wonderful weekend mine has been pretty quiet just stayed in mostly as it was far too hot for me and Rob and our poor little Blade hates the heat bless him.I am going to make this a quick post as I really must try to get some sleep now.

This card I have made for the Color Throwdown Challenge and The Sugar Bowl Challenge and a few others.

The Throw down want you to use these colours
and The sugar bowl would like you to use this Sketch made by Judy with a theme of Scallops but I have turned the Sketch around to fit my stamped image which is sweet and sassy from Sugar Nellie and she is one of my favourites.
I have coloured her with promarkers,Papers are from Papermania the rose pack as was the diecut sentiment,Butterfly punch and scalloped punch are both Martha Stewart ones and finally the gems and glitterglue are both from my stash.
oh I have just seen the ending of Titanic I love that film so sad though.
Anyway the challenges I am entering this card into are as follows:

Color Throwdown-Real Red,Baja Breeze,Certainly Celery,Regal Rose
The Sugar Bowl-Judy's Sketch and Scallops
by the cute and Girly-Warm summer days
Craftilicious-Cute
Polka Doodles-Summer Theme
YNS-Flower Power

Thankyou so much for popping over
