PS- sending prayers

My golly oh gosh ... it has snowed and snowed today! The mini mes have been super excited and even though I really don't like snow (far too cold for me) I took them outside for a play.... Archie did his very first 'snow angel' and Tills just kept poking at the snow wondering what is was.. too cute.


So aswell as having a play in the snow today I also had a play with my new Paper Smooches stamps- 'Flap Happy'. My cards when I use PS usually end up being funky and a little bit whimsy but today I mixed it up a little and when a bit shabby chic/vintagey.....


I used the sketch from Paper Smooches Sparks and papers from Pink Paislee. Totally loving the shabby chicness of this one and I may have to have another play with these gorgeous papers while they're on my desk ...

Night all, sleep well. xxx
