Good afternoon lovely peeps!
I've had such a busy week at work this week there has been no time for crafting or even relaxing to be honest, but only two more shifts and then I have a whole lovely ten days off & I cannot wait :)

goodies on our cards. You don't have to use them to enter our challenge but we'd love to see them if you do.
On today's card I have featured MFT's Jumbo Beautiful Bow Die & In The Woods Stencil, and for my texture I have used embossing paste, lace & some fibers added around my pretty Prima flower.
When I stencil on my cards I usually use Dreamweaver embossing paste and once that is dry re position the stencil and go over the paste with white Gesso as it makes my stencil work more prominent.
The copic colours I've used are -
skin - E11, E00, E000, R12, hair - E47, E44, E42, hat - C3, C1, C00 / R01, R12, R000, top R14, R12, R01, skirt & skates - C3, C1, C00, sledge - W6, W4, W2, W0, snow C1, C00, B0000.
As always our lovely Heidi is sponsoring our challenge with a $50 voucher for the fabulous
Lemon Shortbread - anything goes, Through The Craft Room Door - anything goes, Crafting From The Heart - anything goes, Craft Your Passion - anything goes, Love To Scrap - anything goes, Not Just Cards - anything goes, Our Crafty Corner - anything goes, The Paper Nest Dolls - anything goes
That's me finished for now peeps, I need to wrap up warm and battle the elements as I'm working a late shift today. No matter how much I enjoy my job I would much rather be snuggled indoors on a day like today.
