How is your week going? I am glad the snow has gone. In fact our snow had disappeared by Friday evening. On Sunday we got to meet our four month old great niece. She is a little sweetie and we did get a few cuddles. It is so nice to have a baby in the family.
Sometime ago I made a panel using Distress Oxides and the Tatty Daisies stamp from Woodware. It has been lying around on my craft desk for ages. I have finally made it into a card. It is amazing what you find when you have a tidy up.
I know the background is made with blended Distress Oxides that was then flicked with water to make the spots.
I can't remember if I stamped and embossed before I added the Distress Oxides to the paper or after. I did use water to remove some of the colour from the flowers and then I painted them with Pixie Powers made into a paint with water.
The sentiment came from one of my sets of images from Beccy's Place. I had printed it and die cut it some time ago.
This will be a nice flat card for posting. I really am trying not to make so many dimensional cards this year. The postage costs are prohibitive.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
Enjoy the rest of the week.
Happy Crafting
