This week Chrissie and Mandi asked us to use three shades of green on our cards, in whatever form of paper-crafting technique you fancy, so out came my skeleton leaf stamp again which has been stamped in Certainly Celery, Wild Wasabi and Always artichoke... thanks to my new supplies from Vicky :0)
Quite pleased how quickly this card came together... good to create with natures palette :0)
On a completely different note.....
I just want to thank Karin, Brandi and Linda who have all passed on blog awards to me recently..I'm so happy to know you enjoy visiting my blog and I really appreciate that you thought of me :0)
Whilst I have thanked them, I have not passed on the awards because I find time is limited and I just cannot possibly choose a few from my blog list to send them on to, plus many have received the awards multiple times already because you're all amazing!!
Right must dash, I need to get the boy rallied for the day...James sees nothing wrong with staying in his PJ's all day long otherwise!!!
oh, almost forgot, is anyone going to the Big Stamp and Scrapbooking Show at Alexandra Palace on Sunday? If you fancy meeting up drop me an email (on my profile) and we can swap contact numbers :0)
Thanks for looking :0)

Great card Jenny, I love the hesian backing. I too am like James and would love to wonder around all day in my PJ's, but don't think it would go down well whilst shopping in Asda!!

Lovely card, well done :) Viv xx
ReplyDeleteJames & Connor would be a pair - Connor tells me that 'it's what teenagers do' when he refuses to get dressed on a day off!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love that skeleton leaf stamp - and it's perfect with the hessian, and the twine & wood button :)
lovely leaf card Jenny...like the hessian and the button and twine...

I love your card, Jenny. It would be suitable for anyone, and your skeleton leaf looks fabulous...it looks like three actual layered leaves.

Great card, love the leaf stamp and the hessian looks fab. xx
ReplyDeleteI love that skeleton leaf. I wondered whether it is an actual stamp or whether you made a stamp from an actual skeleton leaf?! Either way it looks great, and I also like the way you have mounted it up. Kate x
ReplyDeleteAnother fabulous card Jenny! Love the 'naughty' hessian!

Gorgeous card Jenny - love the skeleton leaf stamp & the texture you have created with the burlap!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for stopping by my blog too - much appreciated :)
This is beautiful, Jenny. I love that leaf in three shades of green. The burlap adds fabulous texture and I do love a bit of brown with green. So natural and lovely. Ann Y.
ReplyDeleteI'm really pleased those inks came in handy straight away Jenny, and thanks for the shout out. I love the fanned out leaves and hessian is the perfect companion for them. My youngest doesn't really see the need for clothes at all although he kindly makes the concession of underpants! See you on Sunday, Vicky x
