Hello again!!


Well it has been awhile!!!! Life has been full of changes for me, including a new job which requires more hours in addition to running after my two young ones - therefore my craft/scrapbooking has taken a back seat. There may be fewer uploads......sorry. I have only just placed my order from the new Stampin'Up catalogue that came out in April (how sad is that)!!!
This is a card I made for my Mum for Mother's Day (even that seems like ages ago). The DS paper I have used was from the Stampin' Up Spring Mini Catalogue last year, 'Apple Cider'. I really liked the earthy tones of the paper, and that led to the inspiration for the rest of the card. The cardstock is Kraft. I have used the sentiment from Occasional Greetings (pg 112) and stamped in Chocolate Chip. I have sponged the edges of the card in the same ink to give a bit of an aged and weathered look. The ribbon is wild wasabi double stitched ribbon (retired). Hope you are all well and being more crafty then myself....see ya round.
