Tres Chic!!

Hi all,

Well what about this gorgeous weather then, my kids have their harvest assembly today and their annual sponsered harvest walk which is bascially 20 laps round the school field. Last year I did it with them and I can remember them doing it in coats, hats scarves and gloves & wellies, today I have sent them in shorts and T-shirts!!!. I am not doing it this year feeling a bit lazy today lol,

So yesterday I had a very productive day and made my projects ready for the Wild Rose Studio Blog Hop which takes place on Monday 10th Oct at 9am, please do join in the fun with us there are some fabby prizes to be won as each DT member has the stamp they used on their card to give away (well not the exact one but a shinny new one!!)  it felt very strange making christmas cards in such sunny weather.

So anyway as promised I am back today to show you a cute little PB card. The stamp is yet again one of my buys from the NEC in march and this is the first time it has seen ink. Doesnt she look so cute dressed up in her little French Chic outfit, although I have to say I am not too impressed with them, the image is from a clear set and I dont really think the image stamps out that defined and I must have stamped this image out at least 10 times and this was the most decent one out of the lot. (if you look at the colose up image you will see what I mean) I also followed a sketch from somewhere but for the life of me I cant remember or find it now!!.For this card I have again decorated the inside (Diane will be so proud lol!!!)



 

Promarkers used
Face - Coral, Dusky Pink, Satin
Hair - Cocoa, Cinammon, Tan
Cardi & Hat - Antique Pink, Cocktail Pink, Pastel Pink

    That's lovely Lyndsey, I especially like the colours. Good luck in the challenges you have entered.

    Hope the children enjoy their walk. It is very strange weather we are having, isn't it.

    a lovely card Lyndsey. I nearly always decorate the inside of my cards after I saw Rach do it a couple of years ago. It gives a nice surprise to the recipient ( big word!)

    Oh I'm glad it's not just me Lyndsey - I've got this stamp set and I was so disappointed with the quality of them, they're such lovely images too, it's a shame.

    Love your card, those papers are just gorgeous and I love the layout :o) Lisa x

    Lyndsey - what a beautiful card!! You've certainly made a fabulous job of it considering the problems you had with the image. I hate it when that happens - and you'd expect better from PB! I do love these mimi images though! Am really looking forward to working with you and I've become a follower, so I'll be back with more comments! Hugs, Marie xx
