Plain and Simple....really...!

This time it's a card I made just for fun!  I loved the image which the fantastic Shirley sent me (along with many others for my cancer charity cards - thanks Shirley!).  I made the sentiment on the PC and just layered it onto matching card.

Adding a few gems for bling (as I seem to have to have now - Delilah's influence there!) and a pretty little flower I got in a Craft Sale (loads in a bag for 50p!!).  We all love a bargain don't we!

I also got a lovely parcel from my friend Di recently, a gorgeous TH Ink Pad and brushes - once I've had a practice you'll be seeing some of those coming soon.  Also a new Stickles to try - I use them SOOOOO much in my cardmaking just in case you've not noticed yet LOL!!!  I've got problems with my fingers locking up (gets worse in the cold weather) so have to take it a bit at a time, hence not so many cards lately.

Enjoy!

This is great Karen- and so flipping true :)) Love the colour combo too! Look forward to seeing what you do with the TH inks and brushes. If you're going to try clouds, do look at Bev Rochester's blog for her tutorial - remember to 'pounce' as she says on the ink pad with the brush - lol :)) Di xx
