On yer bike!


Not quite a full week off, but there are so many blogs out there that I love to keep up with, I decided I might as well be blogging! I've also been offered a few demonstrations over the last few days, so I am busy preparing for these too.

I had started off this week by deciding I was having a week off crafting to regain my mojo.. well, at the least, sort out my studio.. which I have done - partially.

One of the nicest things I have seen pop up this week, apart from the beloved LOTV blog challenges, was the High Hopes challenge blog. As I love the cuteness of these stamps too, I thought I would have a go.... here's my card.



The image is from High Hopes and I coloured it using distress inks and H2O's. The background papers are Basic Grey Sugared... there are some beautiful papers in this pack it must be my favourite! The flowers and brads are Papermania and ribbon is from my stash. The little greeting is a HOTP rub on which I've had for a while and discovered the other day.
