Sunkissed - First Elisabeth Bell Card

Yuk Monday- again.... Not a lover of Mondays even though I don't actualy have a 'full-time' job (although what can be more full time than looking after 2 children under aged 1,3 and 31, a dog and keeping a home running..) but it means that little man has to go to Nursery - I miss that little dude when he's not here roll on next week when it's half term-YAY!!!

I got a new stamp the other day and love it ! I have been converted to Elisabeth Bell... since I have fell in love with colouring I have tried lots of new stamp companies and this is another one to put in my 'need more of' list.

Here she is ....


I know I'm not there yet with the colouring esp blond hair but I'm enjoying it and as they say practice makes prefect!!!

This is a lovely card - but we can't see where you've used heat embossing. Would you let us know so we can enter you into the WOW! Embossing Powder February Challenge?
