All About Eve Challenge - Escape

I actually got my act together this week & made time to do this fab challenge from the brilliant challenge site All About Eve. I know several of the ladies on the DT & admire there work very much.
Where do you escape to? was the prompt. Well I love my fabby sofa, but I also love to sit in my window seat, read a good book, drink tea & watch the world go by.
Papers are CherryArte Classic Coffee. Red swirl is papermania foam stamp. Red bloom folded behind clock also papermania. Clock is a transparency inked with raisin & espresso alcohol inks & attached with a metallic brad onto a metal circle tag. Rub on brackets & arrow are Bella. Title is printed onto transparency. Font is Bradley Hand & the flowers are digital doodles by I Made This Today. I even included some hand journalling!! See I'm getting brave!
Had great fun with this.
The layout is based on the fabulous sketch from a site called Gettin' Sketchy. They are brilliant & I hope to use several of them.

What a beautiful card! And funny thing- when I thought about my card about this prompt - I wanted to make one about my perfect day - day full of reading good book with cup of good tea!
