Friendship Card

Hello Everyone

Today I am sharing a friendship card, that I made for a friend of mine.

We have a "Desperate Housewives" group that meets every Tuesday and it really is such soul food for me! So one of the ladies has been through a really tough time over the last few months and the group crocheted her a beautiful blanket and we gave her a card.

Here is the card that I made.

I used orange and yellow acrylic paint and a sponge to create the background and then stamped with some brown ink and a BoBunny stamp.

The big sunflower I stamped and coloured with the same acrylic paints and just used a lit bit of water to get the paint moving easier. I then used BoBunny Pearlescent to add the black seeds in the centre.

I've had this Petaluma stamp for ages. It's certainly one of my favourites.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I hope you have a fabulous day!

You are so very Sweet - Scrap Around the World January Challenge

Hello Everyone

We are having a scorcher today and very soon I hope to go and have a dip in the pool! I just came back from a walk with Joe and the dogs to the park, and I am soooooo very hot! ;-)

I have a post to share with you and it's for the Scrap Around the World January Challenge here. It has such a super, soft mood board.

I chose to use the colouring from this board for my page.

This is our new puppy Blossom, she is a Border Collie and is so very precious. We got her on the 05th Jan and she is now 7 weeks old. She has been such a breath of fresh air to our home, as well as chaos and destruction!!!! ;-) LOL....but we love her dearly and she gets on really well with Rosie.

I used the Love You Madly collection from Glitz Design.

I did a lot of gesso layers, stencilling, watercolouring, sponge painting, stamping and then lots of layers.

Some close-ups for good measure.
