Anything Goes

Well Hello Everyone

I hope Mr Blogger is behaving and you are seeing this as I will be in hospital having an operation on my hand when this goes live - gulp!

Some of you may remember me saying some time ago that I thought I had avoided an operation as a steroid injection seemed to have done the trick but alas no :o(  On the positive side though the surgeon tells me that there is a 100% success rate so if that means no more pain then that's brilliant it will all be worth it.


It's challenge time over at Papertake Weekly and this week we want to make it nice and easy for you as I expect you'll all be busy trying to get everything done ready for the festive season.  So this week's challenge is "Anything Goes" but we are giving you the extra option of doing a "Clean and Simple or CAS" as it's known.

Our sponsor for this week's challenge is Lili of the Valley so get your entries in to be in with a chance to win.

I decided to go for the CAS card:


I made this card using a lovely owl stamp called "Stocking Owls" from Little Claire's which I coloured with Copics.  I outline the image with Tumbled Glass Distress ink and edged all the papers with my favourite Distress Ink - Frayed Burlap.

And that's it.

I hope you all have a good week.

Ta ta for now.

Hope the op goes well hun. Fabulous card, love the colours. Funny frayed burlap is your fave as that is one I don't use very often unlike vintage photo. Has given a lovely soft edge to your card so maybe I should rethink.
