..thank crunchie...


...it's friday.

Today has gone the completely opposite direction from the one I intended for it, and I found myself wanting to make a bright card to cheer myself up!

Had 10 mins to spare, really, and so coloured a pre-stamped image from the Peace and Plenty set with whacky colours, I might try this again sometime when I have longer LOL.

Literally threw a stitched border around it using the stitch border from Off Beat Backgrounds, normally I'd have made an effort to get the ends to match up, today I don't have time!! lol

Stamped sentiment in black and trimmed out as a sort of flaggy/bannery thingy.

out the door, kids to collect!! lol

Oh and I'm taking names for a waiting list for Very Vintage Labels No. 4, it was in stock and sold out again almost immediately!!

ED - if you could email me on claire.brennan1@ntlworld.com I will add you to my list! Much appreciated!!!

hope it tickles

  9. Claire, this is very pretty. I love the little bit of pink thrown in there. Here's to a restful, relaxing weekend - the past few days have been crap for me too.
