First Kiss

Morning all


Jut a quick post today before I dash off to work. This is one I made a couple of weeks ago as a trial for something different. The pictures were difficult to take to show how the card opens, but it folds down the front so that it can close with the image inside or it opens half way with the image on the front.

I just love this stamp, its one of my favourtites, but I have so many favourites it is difficult to get round them all more than once.

I would like to enter this into the following challenge:

Sarah Kay image (First Kiss)

Tilda Shopping

Morning all 

Well I had another business trip with work last week and did not have time to post ny cards again and this weekend I only had time to make one card which was a quick one and I did not get time to photograph it before I dropped it off. 

Anyway I thought I would post this one, as it reminds me of me when I need a little retail threapy, allthough I would have more bags than this:-)

I also did not break into any new sheets of paper or card, I used off cuts from left over bits and bobs that I had used previously on other cards.
