A nice way to start the week? Yes!
I am using up lots of neglected stash,
getting use out of my older stamps
and using up some of my ribbon stash!
For my tag I have used stamps from Scrapberry called Best Friends,
papers were a gift from my lovely friend Carol
and I embellished it with a sentiment card from a paper pack from
Echo Park called Dive into Summer.
The shape has been punched using my best trio punch (SU)
and I finished with a scrap of ribbon.
The little girl has been coloured using markers and
then fussy cut.

So to go along with my tag I had to include an ATC.
This time I went all inky using a stamp set
from AALL & Create (thank you Carol)
called See you Soon.
I used tahitian tide and boho blue inks (SU)
for the background along with a stencil
which was free with a magazine a long time ago.
The flowers have been coloured with
gel pens so they would cover the inky
stencilling beneath them.
I finished off with some enamel effects in grey
to add some texture.
I would like to enter this into
my stencil has stripes and dots
So have I tempted you to have a play?

After all my gardening I have ended up with a very
sore back! I can't sit, stand or lie without severe pain!
So not much fun until this subsides!!
Gardening will be a spectator sport from now on!!!
