Hmmmm,let me think,what is my favourite colour?!.....LOL!!!!
I just couldn't resist this weeks FF challenge ,I luv to use PINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Paper is SU (Sweet Always) this was a dilemma,choosing which side to use,as on the back is a gorgeous bird & swirls & spots and....nope! I made the right decision,haha!!!!
The pocket is a sizzix die cut that I have had for a hundred years ;O)!!!,star buttons from my jar,threaded with embroidery cotton,flowers from stash,image was coloured with Distress Inks,sentiment,huh! don't get me started on that!!! How many times do we tell ourselves never stamp direct onto the card?!,yep,it blobbed & smudged,grrrrr!,but wasn't going to let that spoil it,so I am ignoring that bit,lol!!!
Thanx for looking,have a luvly evening :o)xxx
