Smile please......




A few of you know the reason why I cant craft at the moment but I did  have a couple of hours in the craft room yesterday and managed to put together a quick birthday card.

 The image is a Penny Black one called 'Why am I smiling'....the embossing folder is a Floral one from Embossalicious which I've used Core-indation White Wash card and sanded it back... The swirl is a die from Marianne...punched flowers and a Craftwork card Sentiment complete the card... I am really missing my crafting but will do what I can when I can.....its club night next week and will have some samples to post then....

Thank you for sticking with me and I will try and see what you've been up to...
