Happy World Cardmaking Day! Wow, all over blogland there's something for someone to craft about. Well this card is travelling to Paige on Monday morning and you can read about it here. There is a fab challenge over at SSS for Paige, what a good cause, lovely jubbly! This will be my entry for Stampavie #13 which is Autumn and I've used my new 'Roam' papers from K&Company, brilliant papers with a warm feel to them.The backing papers are from shabby princess 'vintage' download which goes really well with this and used my Koh-i-Noor pencils on this cute 'Sweet Lili' image from Sarah Kay and blended with odourless mineral spirit, made some flowers from a tutorial here but only followed it part of the way. I'd like to enter for Cute Daisy May challenge (my first time to this challenge) which is 'easy as 1,2,3: 1 ribbon,2 button and 3 flowers' so I hope this will qualify! I love this stamp used for this card so much, it reminds me of comfort and safekeeping for the times where you're perhaps in pain and sadness and just a snuggle up to a favourite toy is just so comforting ... we've all been there...but i'd like to end on a happier note and wish all a very happy day whatever you're all doing!!!
