Liz's card

Hello Lovelies - this is my final scheduled post for a while - we should be returning from Cornwall tomorrow - not looking forward to the drive but it has to be done!

Today i would like to share a card with you that i made for my friend Liz.


I thought this indigo blu stamp might be suitable - but first I made up the background using distress inks and layering stencils. then I added small stamps before adding the main stamp in black archival.


The last thing I added were painty circles in snowflake fresco paint! I hope Liz liked it!

Big hugs and back to normal soon!

  11. Like all the texture & detail on the background....just pulls the eye right round the space to see what else is there. Never thought to add the multiple images as you've done here, but it is very special with that particular sentiment. Your friend loved it too, I'm sure. Hope the drive home is pleasant and stress free. And that you have good weather to drive. TFS & Happy wkend.

  21. Oh my! STUNNING! Love your awesome background, and a nice glass now and then is a bonus, my problems is I prefer soft drinks these days because of how badly the meds can react to alcohol. Love the colours you've used Karen x
