A Bit of Brown

Hi there,

Well, I've spent all day at school today (after my Monday off) renewing my First Aid certificate - so I'm all ready for any casualties I may come across! Lol.

I have a cute little card to show you today which was made for a work colleague who has just got engaged.  I used one of my new LOTV stamps which I bought recently at a craft show, which I think fits the theme perfectly.  Here's what I made ...

It is a 6x6" card blank layered with a piece of kraft card (also a new purchase and I am in love with it!)  The paper layer is from the Wild Rose Studio 'Vintage Roses' paper pad and is inked around the edges with Pumice Stone distress ink.  The LOTV stamped image is called 'Close your Eyes' and is coloured with my Promarkers and layered onto a Fleur de Lys square cut from the same kraft card.  The sentiment is also LOTV and is accented with WOC flowers and a couple of punched leaves.  Four pink brads finish off the corners of the card.  I think the kraft card and colour scheme give this one a real 'vintage' look.

I would like to enter it in the following challege:

Simon Says Stamp and Show - A Bit of Brown

It's my wedding anniversary tomorrow, so I'm off to make a card for my hubby - good to see I'm nice and organized!! Lol.

Have a good weekend,

Hugz, Jan xx
