From the Heart

Brrrr but it's cold outside.   As I am writing this, the winds outside are howling and the furnace is going full tilt.  Here's hoping you are all keeping safe and warm.  Another week has disappeared, and today it's the start of another challenge at Charisma Cardz.  This time around, the theme is VINTAGE, and we are really hoping you can have a bit of fun and join us .


 Here, I've had a play with one of our sponsor's sweet images, colouring it with copics, fussy cutting and then adhering with foam tabs.  A nice easy layout with some stamping, some lace and ribbon and a pretty sentiment.  The papers already had a distressed edging, but I added a wee bit more.

Supplies used:
Stamp Fairy image - Clementine 2
Basic Grey papers - Clippings collection
Whimsy stamps - sentiment and corresponding die
Ribbon from Sew Sweet.

Now for our wonderful sponsors for this challenge, and the prizes that you might win:
Prize #1

 (with a $10 gift voucher for their shop)

and

Prize #2

 What better reason than that, to stay inside where it's warm and do some crafting!  Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you enjoyed your visit.
