Today I have used one of my stamps that have not seen the ink. It was just great to colour in and really enjoyed it.

I have used UTEE on the stars so they stand out better, a little messy, but the end result is good. It took 4 coats.

I hope you are having a fab holiday weekend. Is soooo cold  and i I have heard that its going to be like this for the whole of May.

Todays card is linked to the terrible weather we have been having, but I have tried to come up with something different in the design, using some goodies i brought ages ago and never got round to using. I am quite liking the button technique and am going through my bits and bobs to ensure that i try and use all the things i have brought in the past.

Off to the LOTVopen weekend now catch you later.

I hope you are all well on this very wet day........ when will the rain stop and its so cold.

Todays card is something very different no colouring! I wanted to try out one of the Tim Holtz dies that I had for Christmas and this is the result. I embossed the mannequin after cutting it out as it looked to bear without. I then out thread round the bobbin to make it look authentic.

The tape round the mannequin is ribbon that i got from a craft shop, was not sure what I would do with it when i brought it, but I knew I would find a use.
