So glad April is over.
Sorry I haven't been around but it has been a
month of trials....
Managed to cave in to the worst "flu" I've ever had on
the same day Mum took a turn for the worst...
She passed on the 5th and the funeral had to be
sorted quickly as little Sis was full term with her
baby boy.
Baby was due the day of Funeral!!!
Fortunately all has passed well, and Baby
hung on til 20th bless.
It was also her daughters Birthday...
the same weekend Mum passed!
My DT project for MAY at
is the card I made for my little niece :)
I was supposed to be posting a review about
the Stazon ink pads, so I used one
to stamp my Gorjuss image onto watercolour paper.
I felt it would make a softer outline for the watercolour
paint effect.
(Gorjuss stamps by Santoro)
I used one of the small collectable stamps for the
money pocket on the inside...
which I also watercoloured.
I really am pleased with the overall look of this card,
matching the colours of the papers
(Spring Delights from Paper Boutique) to paint the image,
and the stazon didn't move at all!!! :D
So here's to a less stressful May XXX
I would like to share in the following challenges;
