Hello my crafty friends. As it is raining...again, I thought I would share a card that I put together last night to support a couple of current challenges.
It is a mixture of old and new. The stamp is one that I bought way back in my early rubber stamping days and one that I have rarely used. I spotted it on a virtual shopping trip and had to have it as one of the faces reminded me of my own New Forest Pony, Surprise. The new is the fabulous die cut layers which were made using a Tonic die set...English Picnic it is called and I was rather shocked at the size of them...huge!! In fact the ones I have used here on this 6 x 5ish card are some of the smallest!!
Anyway raining it may be, but that means a wet and muddy utility room floor from the dog walk this morning so I had better go and sort that out!!
Have a lovely day whatever the weather xx

ReplyDeleteWhat a super take on the SS theme Sarah, New Forest ponies are prefect and it's a rather nice image at that which works very well in the monochromatic colours. Thanks so much for joining us at Allsorts, Stamping Sensations and Penny Black and More challenges.
ReplyDeleteRain here as well, my in house weather man tells me we've had almost 1/2" since this time yesterday so soggy paddocks again, but will help the seed that was scattered on the thin patched earlier in the week.
