Simply 'Thinking of You'

Hi there! You've popped in because you know this post is for
the latest challenge over at Just Us Girls
Hosting this week is the Lovely Lisa.
It's our Colour Week (a favourite of mine)
choosing  



I found it a little hard to get a decent photo.
Sometimes our camera/photo editing doesn't do
our card justice. That is the case here.
***
I got out an old favourite stamp/punch set from SU
for my card today. It's Petite Petals.
I cut 3 inked with Hampton Art Aqua.
Put them aside to arrange my background.
The first inking is a stamp gifted by a friend
in Memento London Fog. I then added a bit of
grunge in the aqua from SU Timeless Textures.
Cut out a MFT circle frame in SU Brilliant Blue
I used this same card stock for my base.
The grey leaves were cut from a Sizzix die
and inked again from the Timeless Texture Set.
Added Nuvo Drops to the centres of the flowers
which were popped.
Sentiment is from Happy Little Stampers.

Thanks for dropping in -
Hope you will go over and check
our May Guest Patti and the Team's creations
and join us in the Gallery.

    Photography can be tricky. One has to have the light coming from behind for best results.
