Just Because....

Hello!! It's been a while eh!?  Busy time with work here and as my craft life doesn't pay the bills....... It comes a poor third (after housework bleh)

Anyway, I did sneak a few minutes to play with my new Hero Arts Closed flower stamp!!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this gorgeous stamp!! I love anything HERO ARTS!
 I still love MFT but they are sort of different with the dies, so it's ok.
This card literally took a minute to make and if you'd like to know how, the details along with ALL the products used are at SCRAPBOOK BOUTIQUE.
I am going to make a few more with a different colour flower, so I can have a few on hand for emergencies.

BE UNIQUE!

I'm have had a massive clean up in my craft room ( a necessity......visitors were arriving!) and let me tell you, It was like CHRISTMAS!!  I found a few Hero Art Cling Stamps I'd forgotten I had received from ScrapBook Boutique along with a LA LA Eiffel Tower Die and some extra Distress Ink pads...I was in heaven!!!
I really love the Distress Ink Pads and joining in the Tim Holtz Creative Chmistry 101 was really informative and perfect for me to know what ALL THESE THINGS I COLLECT are actually used for! lol
Anyway I love all the colour combinations you can have and matched with the perfect pearls OH LA LA!!!!

Another favourite of mine is The ALLEY WAY stamps gorgeous quirky clear stamps that are great to work with.... I am fast collecting all of those sets too.....

This is the Hero Arts ENCHANTE set I found and what a coincidence, I found the Eiffel Tower too!! I must of been channelling my dream of spending my 50th in France....

anyway thanks for popping in, all the details on HOW TO make and create this card along with all the products needed are at SCRAPBOOK BOUTIQUE xx
