Hubby finished off the pics for me but I was busy looking at your blogs and have just got around to putting it on here. I loved this 6 x 6 pad as soon as I saw it on the show with Hels. I'm not one for making spur of the moment cards - I procrastinate toooooo much. However when this pad arrived I had a sudden urge to make a card and I even had half an idea in my head - yippee!
Here is the result -
A couple of close ups to follow
And finally - a sideways shot!
Ingredients :
6 x 6" Cardstock Pad - Canvas Corp.
Venetian Motif die
Creative Expressions Sentiment stamp
Raffia
Antique Linen/Black Soot DI
Flowers from my stash
I really hope you like this one - especially the sentiment. Thanks to all of you for stopping by, I am now back in the saddle - not that I can ride lol - and will be blogging whenever I can.
Big hugs to you all.
SUE
