This is my card for a swap called the SIS--Surprise Image Swap.   This is card #16 for our group.  It is a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same image, sent to us by the hostess.  The surprise part is that we are to not discuss the image at all until the day they are to be posted--the 18th of every other month.   The sweet image for this round was provided by Carol!  She will swap the cards and include the new image for round #17 that Terry will have stamped in each return envie. Then--we do it all again in October! 

Carol sent us this adorable image from House Mouse called Bootie Babies.  She also included a sentiment, but I decided to not use it.   I colored each of the images with my Copic Sketch Markers and die cut with a Gina Marie Stitched Oval.  I picked out sweet blue baby patterned paper and used Gina K Designs Master Layouts 2 for the panel.  I added a blue brad on the bow and some Balmy Blue Ribbon as a flag.  This was a fun card to make!

Accessories:  Stampin' Up Brad, Balmy Blue Ribbon; Gina K Designs Master Layouts 2; Gina Marie Designs Stitched Oval Die; Copic Sketch Markers

Today is the 9th and it is now time for another The Three Musketeers post. We are ready to showcase the card we all created with the Spellbinders House Mouse Noel image and sentiments that I sent out for our October card, #110! That means we into year number 10 with this fun challenge! 10 YEARS--WOW!!!!! All three of us sure have enjoyed the challenges every month and we hope that it continues for a long time! 

I saw the sweet image a month or so ago at the Expo in Illinois and just loved it! I colored the image with my Copic Sketch Markers.  Since this is such a large image, I used my Gina K Designs Master Layouts 2 die to cut the image and backer. I used a Cherry Cobbler card base.  I also used the stitched sentiment banner from the same set to cut out the phrase that comes in the set.  I did not add any bling to my card this time!  I hope Jeanette and Kelly along with you enjoy my card!
