The challenge over at
Cute Card Thursday this week is to use something new on your card. Well, being the shopaholic that I am, it wasn't too difficult to find something new and in this case it is the Tilda stamp (used for the first time), and the American Crafts ribbon. Papers are Cosmo Cricket and I coloured the image with Ranger Distress Inks, highlighting with Inkessentials white pen. This is the first time I have 'shadowed' the image and it was much easier than I thought, and I also used watercolour paper for the first time which worked really well.
Since my recent illness (for those who don't know, I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in November and subsequently had a mastectomy, but the prognosis is really good following one more operation on the 27th January, and I am now free of cancer), I have decided to go for a walk every day whilst I'm off school. Yesterday the weather put me off, but today looks just perfect for a lovely long walk.
See you later xxx
