Heather's Sunday Challenge

Hi All,

I've had a lovely day out with the family, enjoying the sunshine and fresh air.

Since getting back, I've been 'blog hopping'...as you do....and come across Heather's challenge; so I thought I'd give it a go. You can play along too - just click on the link http://www.stampwithheather.typepad.com/

She supplied a simple sketch; of which I can't seem to paste across to show you.......I really must gen up on my computer and my reading skills!! (You'll see why I said this, in a minute.....LOL!!)

The instructions said, on the central piece: make this your focal point with fun stamping, greeting and embellishment................so what have I created?*!


A 'punched out bird' - that's what....I suppose, I did stamp it's wing!
Even the '4 you' was added after I'd photographed it, and realised it had no greeting!
The embellishment - I've decided, is the satin ribbon; as the brad I altered with black embossing powder, was too large and looked as stupid as I feel, for not reading the instructions properly.....just as well it's my son who'll be sitting exams soon!!

I blame it on too much sunshine today!!
I had fun though, and feel this may be a card that will be reproduced at my next get together.

Happy Crafting

PS. I'll try and get the brain in gear tomorrow...LOL!!
