Oh so Lovely

September 25th, 2008 by Bev

I just love this card, I cased the original from SCS but I have used a different stamp and colours and added accessories. Have made this in many colour combinations and it looks great everytime.  It will be a good multi purpose card to have on hand.

Faux Woodgrain

September 25th, 2008 by Bev

This is a very easy technique that looks so effective. It is simply dragging the stamp pads direct to paper over each other. I was worried my white would be chocolate but it is ok and still stamps white.
