Hello...it's confession time

Hi folks...it's "woohoo middle of the week" Wednesday...I'm still whirling round on the crafty hamster wheel but what do you know...I managed to sneak in a little bit more playtime with Tim's gorgeous Mini Blueprints 8# stamps...using different images from yesterday with a Mustard Seed Distress Spray Stain background and Big Chat Stickers for the sentiment...
so easy to colour on Tim's fabulous Distress Watercolor Cardstock 
and wow the Shadow Press Station is a great little gadget and before you all pop into my Inbox...you can get it HERE
but it's confession time...I wasn't happy that the debossed sentiment didn't stand out very well against the background so this "can't leave well alone" crafter decided to highlight "Hello" using the Mustard Seed Distress Marker and fine detail water brush and promptly made a right pig's ear of the letter "H"...yeah Distress Inks react with water...don't you know but no way was I starting over so I coloured a scrap of paper with the marker...embossed the word again and cut out the "H"...
and on this occasion I may JUST have got away with it or depending on your point of view...over-egged the pudding somewhat...
See you all tomorrow
Hugs Kath xxx

  4. Oh but this is fabulous Kath! A great design and I agree, a great rescue too. And isn't that Mustard Seed a delicious colour? Makes for a stunning background. x
