Something old...something new...

Hi folks...remember this little rhyme...
Something Old...
Something New...
Something Borrowed...
Something Blue...
normally associated with weddings but it sprang right into my mind when I was making this card...yes I've been a little bit naughty and already had a teeny weeny play with something new...
but where does the "Something Old" come in.  Another of those impulse purchases I'm afraid....those definitely "must have" items that end up being stored away and forgotten...sound familiar and I'm now kicking myself...how could I have neglected the gorgeous Stampendous Frantage Embossing Enamels and Fragments for so long...



To create the centre tree I dumped a pile onto a piece of card...heated until melted and stamped the tree into it...a bit like the old UTEE trick and look at the result....wowzers I love the texture and the sparkle...just wish the camera showed how fabulously blingy it is...
And the reason for my fall from grace...I had to pop over to The Papeterie yesterday to pick up some kitting supplies and guess what...my lovely buddy Debbi just happened to be strutting her stuff with Promarkers and Flexmarkers...what a co-incidence and it would have been so rude to just cut and run so by the time I got home after much coffee and chat...it wasn't worth starting on the worky stuff again and the rest is history...
If you haven't entered my Monthly Monday Give-Away yet..to win a gorgeous bundle of all things pink from The Ribbon Girl...you have until 8pm tonight to get your name in hat.
See you all tomorrow when I'll be announcing the lucky winner.
Hugs Kath xxx
