Seeing as I dug out some of my older papers that I was terrified to cut in to last week, I decided to revisit some of my favourite images as well, and Picked Sweet from Whimsy Stamps is the first. I had forgotten just how much I love Elisabeth Bell’s work …. my bad! So, I had a good old play in my craft room yesterday. I ended up making a couple of cards, it’s amazing what I can get done when I plug the iPod in and listen to a book whilst working. The day just flew by, and it’s a win because I don’t feel guilty sitting with my nose in my Kindle all day.
I used the delish Anna Griffin papers again, the same papers as my last card just a different colour way. See, I told you I had a problem ha! Ugh the card looks skew whiff, it’s not – it’s the pants photographer.

ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful card Bev and certainly given the 'Bev' treatment. I can still remember you using this the first time round, as I then had to buy it. I coloured her up again a couple of weeks ago, but she is still waiting to be added to a card.
