Good morning peeps,
It's been a sad few days for us with a lot of tears shed, it seems to be one thing after another but that's just the way life seems to go I guess.
Today is new challenge day at
& this week our challenge is
My lovely teamies and I are showcasing Spellbinders this challenge, I've even dusted off my poor neglected Grand Calibur to play with so I was right after all I did "need" it when I bought it lol.
Ingredients -
Medium - distressed inks
Papers - Magnolia
Lace - Kaiser
The clouds are die cut using one of the new Magnolia Doo Hickey's, dumbo here was in a hurry to take photo's and upload in the DT blog and kept thinking something was missing and it was the ribbon I was intending to thread through the hole in the cloud, duh lol.
The small doily tucked behind the flowers is also a new Magnolia Doo Hickey, if you haven't got it already you'll be pleased to know it is one whole little doily die unlike the last infamous doily die which wasn't what we expected!
