Well finally got around to making something !! It's been one of those weeks for me, mojo up and left me, too many late nights...7 nights of Most Haunted Live to blame for that one and just generally feeling pants !!
Anyhoooo i thought i'd try my hand at this weeks challenge over at A Spoonfull of Sugar where the challenge is to PAPER PIERCE, is it paper pierce or paper piece ? i'm never quite sure.
I'm having a overhaul of my stamp collection at the mo, out with the old in with the new, apart from the favourites and this is one of them !!
I used this delightful Alota stamp, BasicGrey paper is Archaic, Martha Stewart punch, Fiskars flower punch, Hero Arts sentiment, Prismacolor pencils to colour, stickles to add a bit of sparkle and a touch of glossy accents.
Right off to clear up the horrendous mess i've made in the process of making this card...if only you could see !!!
Oh and again a little update on my candy...well i'm having a ponder as to what to do, you see the stamp i wanted to offer wont be available till the beginning of Feb...do i wait till then or go for something completely different ? I havnt forgotten just cant decide :(
Sigh......absolutely beautiful Katy! It's a gorgeous stamp, I could never part with it either. Brilliant paper piecing and the scalloped edge looks wonderful. Hope you catch up on your sleep tonight LOL! Take care. Chris x
