About Me

My photo
I'm a 30-something wife to Gary, and mum to James (4) and Katie (2). After making loads of cards during my first year-long maternity leave, I'm now busy, busy, busy, with work and two kids. I'll get back to it someday though, I'm sure!

Sketch and Stash challenge




My first attempt at a Stamp and Stash challenge, for one of James' friends.

The 'new' things on here are the embossing powder and stamp. In fact the embossing itself is completely new to me!

The rocking horse is from a pack of Anita's christmas stamps and I've embossed it using silver 'Heat it up' powder. The papers are from Dandelion and Daisy's 'A Winter's Tale' collection and I've used Dovecraft brads. I've finished it off with peel off corners and borders.
