Wednesday, is it just me, or is the week racing away?

Morning readers, 

Hope your week is coming along well and that the seemingly unending rain isn't having too negative impact on your week.

I had a lovely day with a pal yesterday, we met at an out of town outlet mall .. coffee, retail therapy, chat and lunch .. followed by more of the same - super day, thanks matey!

I've a make to share with you today ....... part of a recent commission for a few anniversary cards ... a friend asked for "a few" but I only had three to offer so thought I would use that as an excuse to make a few more! After all, only right I should offer my friend choices rather than "here are the three you asked for"!  I'm pleased to report that this one was one that she picked!

My C6 card

  • Card in white and pearl gold, for my card front, insert and matting
  • Habico image from a wedding set, stamped using Versafine Clair nocturne ink, 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation stamped images
  • Clearly Besotted sentiment (from "brushed sentiments") stamped using Versafine Clair morning mist ink
  • Unknown heart stencil used, with a makeup brush, to apply Memento ladybug ink around the couple
  • Crystal stickles to add some twinkle to the dress
