Ok, I won't rabbit on today as Alan's parents are coming to see our gorgeous little Eva, and I have loads to do, so here goes.....
CARD No.1
All cardstock from Papermill
Background on this card coloured with Pan Pastels.
Stamps from LAVINIA and Stamp-It (Australia)
I really like this charcoal cardstock....it's coloured right through (no white core).
CARD No. 2
The background on this card haas been made with Spray Inks from
It was very tricky ( read that as 'losing my rag' with it!) getting all the words lined up UNDER the die-cut....it was almost launched out of the window a few times, I can tell you....LOL
CARD No 3
The background on this last card was made by brayering gold acrylic paint over white linen card. I wanted the texture of the card to show through.
I think this is a very simple, but effective card....love the two colours together.
I heat embossed the Sheena Douglas sentiment with
fine detail embossing powder.....best around, in my opinion.
Well, that's it for today, hope you like them all. Have a fabulous weekend......I'll catch you again in a couple of days.
