Going To Seed

Good morning. After a very dull start to the day yesterday by half past three it was really quite nice. Who knows what today will bring? It's starting out bright and sunny, but pretty chilly.

My Card


Click on image to enlarge picture

Today's card is really very simple. I have used a Woodware stamp "Going To Seed"  and I stamped it with Kaleidacolor "Autumn Leaves". I then just picked out parts of the image and highlighted with different coloured Stickles, although that doesn't really show up in the picture. The sentiment is from Ladybug Crafts Ink and I managed to ink it up using one of the colours from the rainbow pad. I matted it onto pearlescent card and added some ribbon from my stash to finish it off.  I have a few of these foliage-type stamps and I find them really useful. They look so different depending on what you use to stamp them.

Well that's it from me for today. Hope you all have a good day.

Love and hugs from Christine  xx
