isnt it amazing what you have as scrap...


Good morning everyone how you all doing...well I hope...what is up with the light lately it is sooooo grey and washed out, wheres all this bright summery light we all clamber for in the winter...look how grey this photo is, doesn't it make you mad when you work hard to make a bright sparkly card and the photo doesn't do it justice, it really doesn't show this lush sparkly paper I found in my scrap box, I will try and take a different one when I get back to show you how beautiful it is...the stamp is from Lili of the valley and is called Baby Christening, I coloured it with distress inks and sparkled her gown and the window up...I finished with some ribbons, a bow, charm and another LOTV stamp from a sentiment set...I'm entering this for the celebrate challenge at Lili of the Valley Thursday Challenge and the lush sketch is from Dutch Dare Card challenge so I'm entering that too...have a fab day everyone
