About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.
Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.
I don't always get a chance to reply to all comments but I read them all when I approve them and I really appreciate you taking the time to give your comment.

Creative Fingers 256 - anything goes

 Creative Fingers 256 - anything goes
https://creativefingerschallengeblog.blogspot.com/

Our sponsor is Anne Constantly Carding - Crafts U Print
https://www.craftsuprint.com/anne-constantly-carding/


I layered oval onto Anne's papers from Wildflower Fields paper set, added border from Digital Scrapbooking Studio and printed out.
Sponged oval with distress inks.
I found some 3D sheets I bought years ago and forgot about.  They were ones you just had to press the pictures out so I didn't have to cut.
Just used 2 layers onto the oval.  Added Happy Birthday stamp, flowers and dragonfly brad.

I hope you will go over later and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.

I followed Try Stampin or Not sketch 608 (I rotated the sketch)
