Hi Everyone
How's your day been?
Mine has been dull and wet weather wise .. .. .. with just the odd glimpse of sunshine .. .. .. and very windy again. All of the beautiful leaves are slowly falling from the trees and taking up residence on the lawns and the roads and pavements.
A quick share today of a "grown up" card. No cutsie creation today. Don't worry though .. .. I haven't grown up. I'm never planning on doing that.
So here is my creation
This used:
Image: Stampendous! "P106" Mother and Child
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
Distress Ink: Tea Dye .. .. for stamping and distressing
Ribbon from the stash box
and that is it!!!!! But with such a gorgeous stamp you don't need much else .. .. in fact I could have got away without the ribbon.
I had a bit more good news today. My luck must be in at the moment as I won the challenge over at Bee Crafty's Tuesday Challenge today. A new challenge has just been launched using a fab sketch. Why not pop over and have a look.
OK back to my creations .. .. still a few to do before I am happy to give in.
Love
Gorgeous Jules beautiful in the sepia, must try that bought the ink ages ago and havent even opened it, well done on your win.
