My daughter, who is my biggest fan/critic really liked it, so I thought I'd blog it anyway for ya! What doesn't appeal to me much, might inspire someone else, right?
I actually made it for my entry into Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday, so I better go link it up now its blogged! The background was made by stamping one of the small images in a stamp set called Iconic Images which we earned for free a while back just by spending $100!
My friend Cara in Canada sent me a few of the gorgeous flower die cuts using a brand new little die that PTI bought out last month called Bloom Builders #3! I have actually ordered that die and it should be here tomorrow thanks to my lovely friend Gayatri posting it over from WA! THANKS GAYATRI!
Now..... onto my EXCITING NEWS! I was recently contacted by Michelle at The Stamp Spot and asked if I would join her Design Team!!! I've been thinking for the past few months that I'd like to join one, so I was SO EXCITED when she asked me - it was perfect timing!! I'll be posting to The Stamp Spot blog along with the other designers, so be sure to pop over and leave a cheery comment......we'd all love to hear from you!
Righto, before my excitment carries me away, I better go and get the kids organised for school! I'm still sitting here in my jammies and bed hair........NOT A GOOD LOOK! lol
