I think I must have had a couple while making the card - this wasn't want I'd planned but I went with it. Managed to get 2 doilies on it as well   ; )

one thing.....

leads to another, is something which happens to me a lot! I get distracted and never get to do what I was intending to. Today was slightly different - I was intending to do a card, using an image I tangled, from a new purchase of Peerless Designs "Tangletastic 1" crafting cd:

then I had an idea, which featured this photo frame:

three hours, much colouring in, many butterflies and gems later, it had morphed into this:



I was going for less is more, but once I started I couldn't stop, plus it was a big frame (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!) I do love how it turned out and am quite proud of myself as this is something I've never done before.

We don't get many callers on the night, but it still doesn't stop me doing some goody bags, this year I decided to do a digi image and colour in..... which was a good idea, pity I had to do 25. And we've still got half left...

I loved how this turned out, coloured the word love in red to make it the main focus of the card. Am in love with the GG design sheet.

Had this topper for years, forgot all about it till I was (attempting) to tidy my (mess) craft corner up. Soon as I spotted it, I knew it was perfect for the new challenge over at cardz 4 guyz.
