Well I',m back after having no internet for a month and I can't wait to get blogging again. Having had all this spare time on my hands ( yeah right) I've been busy getting cards and toppers ready to sell. Hear are 2 I've made today...

I've used Tim Holtz Distress Ink (brushed corduroy) around the edges and to stamp the Creative Expressions Make a Scene elements. I'd already stamped and coloured my Tilda image and I thought she fitted very well. To finish I used my nesties and stamped with love on it and distressed it added some ribbon and a gorgeous flower from

I've used Tim Holt Distress Ink on this one as well ( Walnut Stain this time) and then stamped Penny Black's Fantasy Tree with Le Plume pens and then using blening inks made a green background. I've used the brand new Magnolia Spring Club Robin Hood Edwin (who is so cute) and finished with a sentiment Best Wishes ( woodware Jane's Script).
I love this idea of distress and thanks to Sonia for showing and guiding me.
