So, back to the card. I made the easel with the scalloped circle grand nesties. The utterly scrummy papers are from Pion Designs - I hate chopping into expensive paper, it gives me the cold sweats!!!! The image and cute as a button sentiment are from LOTV. The beautiful organza rose is from Creative Expressions - I think they are now discontinued! I have no idea why - they are soooo lovely. The leaves are from the spellbinders foliage die set and the hearts are from the Cheery Lynn heart doily die set.
The lovely Squirrel has given me some tips on colouring with distress inks so that's going to be my new challenge. I'd always wanted to give it a go but when I found the gallery on Squirell's blog it was the kick up the bum I needed to give it a go. If you get a chance to check Squirrel's blog and gallery it's WELL worth a visit - she gives proper advice to the beginner on where to start. Thank you Miss Squirrel - you're a top bird and not even close to being a whack job!!!!
