I thought it was about time I played along with Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday since I haven't for god knows how long! This weeks challenge is to make a card using the Decreasing Apertures technique.........quite fun I have to admit!
I sat and made this card I'm about to show you, but I'm spewin' because in all my excitement of actually stamping the sentiment STRAIGHT for once, I smudged a bit of it with my finger somehow! I've fixed it up now, but I can't be bothered to re-photgraph to you'll just have to pretend it's not there!! ;)
I got the colour combination from the SU colour coach and I reckon its pretty nice! The Pink Pirouette piece has had the Linen Impressions plate run over it (again) just to give it a bit of interest, but it would appear you can't see it much in the pic. Again.........just pretend you see it! lol
Righto, well I'm off to boil the kettle. I promised I'd have it boiled for when Maddy walks home from school. We often have a cuppa together in the arvo to catch up on the days happenings!
Thanks for stopping by!
