Something a bit different (for me)

Thanks everyone who enquired about the safety of last night's dinner - I managed to save it in time and it was delicious, it was more Bubble than Squeak and had a couple of extra ingredients but was well worth the wait!

Now then, it is not often you will see a card from me that doesn't have a painted image on it so I hope you are sitting down and bracing yourselves for this ..........


Ta-dah!!  Isn't that Leafy Vines stamp from Hero Arts simply the most delicious flourishy stamp you have ever set eyes on?!  Yummmm.  Stamped in Danube Blue Memento Ink on a piece of Dovecraft Back To Basics IV paper (which IRL is more blue than grey), and matted on a lavender piece from the same pack.  Butterflies are my trusty Martha Stewart punch from a scrap of purple paper, with a LOTV sentiment.  All gems are from stash.

This is quite grown up and elegant for me, and I quite like it.  Don't get used to it though, it won't last and we will be back to cute and cuddly very soon!!

Hugs Squirrel xx
