Good morning all & A Happy New Year to you!
Firstly, I must apologise for being a bad blogger over the holidays & not
posting or commenting as much as I should have!
I've just been so tired & worn out, I needed a good rest!
I'l try to get round to your blogs soon I promise!
So, now that we're slowly getting back to normal, it's time for the first challenge of 2016
at Eureka Stamps where the theme this time is
Here's my card
I've made a little 6"x6" twisted easel card, using the lovely sentiment
Which was cut out with a Spellbinders oval die & matted onto
another Spellbinders, die cut, ornate oval.
The base card is green & the paisley type paper is
from the My Minds Eye, Best of Paisley pad.
I distressed the paper with my serrated scissors.
The flowers are from my stash & have been there forever!
I tend not to use flowers very often as I like to make cards which can be posted easily.
They just seemed to want to be on this card though!
The colours match better IRL.
Thanks for popping in. I hope you can play in this weeks challenge.
I'm sure you all have at least one birthday coming up soon!
