Three stars...
Hi,
No WOYWW for me this week - I got in from Yoga at 10.30pm last night and was just too tired to write my post..
I haven't really been doing that many challenges lately..although you wouldn't believe that as I am entering 4 this week.
Since March, I have made myself only do the ones that I simply can't resist.
Retro Sketches is one of my fave challenge blogs and the current sketch #118 sparked an idea.
I am so pleased with my card, it feels really CAS - which I am a big fan of, but can't always manage..
The washi tape was a gift from JT as part of our $20 challenge last Thanksgiving. The hello die is new and by Technique Tuesday, it was part of the bonus shopping spree. I punched the stars from the same paper as the hello, using a EK Success mini punch.
I thought I should share something that made me smile whilst making this card. The white background paper is actually an old notecard. I had personalised stationery when we lived in London and as I am a paper fiend, I realised that the stock I'd chosen was perfect for cardmaking..waste not want not! I have been using them for months now and they are starting to run low..
I think I am going to send this card to my friend Steph, she is due a little note from me and the colours remind me of her.
