Happy Birthday to You

Hi there this fine Wednesday, so glad to be home and at my desk after 4 weeks away...but the mojo is in slow-mo. It's taken me all day to make this card, swapping about with backgrounds etc. I have based the layout on the Try Stamping on Tuesdays sketch #201, and have used my Bloom sketches STAMPlorations poppy stamp so will post also to their Anything Goes challenge. I stamped the image in Distress Ink and then when it was dry added some water to the base of the flower and touch it with Peacock Feather DI. Then add a layer to the panel and mounted that onto a background panel. Finished off with a tiny sentiment and button.  Thanks for taking a peek Robyn

  4. Oh Robyn... this is so lovely! Love that funky background paper. I think it always takes a while for the brain to be accustomed to being back in a crafty space. I had that problem for like a week after Christmas!
