Daring Cardmakers Challenge

Morning folks....the challenge this week over at Daring Cardmakers has been set by my lovely buddy Lynda and sponsored this week by Teri's Delicious Doodles

LAYER IT UP
and it's not very often that I wax lyrical about my own cards....well as you know us crafters are a bit critical of our own stuff....but I am rather smitten with this one.....absolutely adore this gorgeous poppy image from Hero Arts and it was shouting out for a bit of layer work....




Papers: Delish...High Tea Collection
Image: Hero Arts: CL440 Delicate Blossoms
coloured with TH Distress Ink....Aged Mahogany & Peeled Paint
Martha Stewart Punch
Sentiment: Craftwork Cards
Button and twine from stash

That's all the personal cards done and dusted....time to get my crafty mitts working on a box of yummy goodies that arrived from Craftwork Cards on Saturday.....for a very special project...NO I can't tell you about it yet....I could but then I would probably have to hunt you down and seal your mouth with parcel tape...pop over tomorrow as you may just get a little sneaky peek or two when I join in the fun at WOYWW.  See you all later....Hugs Kath xxx
