I just adore Cath’s Tuesday Trigger this week, Skirting the Issue. I decided to focus on the colours and for some reason I didn’t want too many layers on the card either. I am also enjoying colouring with pencils at the…
I started making this card last week and kept putting it down… I just couldn’t make it work, my ‘vision’ wasn’t making it to the finished product. So now I only have a short time til the Embellish Magazine Square Cards Color…
