Dream with Runway & CTS (video)!

Maybe I can dream that I have the style of one of these glamorous models at Runway Inspired Challenge and can put together an outfit as stunning as this (let alone look good in it too lol), but I’m afraid for me, I didn’t inherit that gene…..  all I can say is I’m lucky I wear a uniform to work, I would have a melt down every morning if I had to actually choose what I had to wear.

Anyhoo I digress, I thought I would film while I made this card as I had a request to show how I made this card HERE.

You can watch it here or Watch it at Youtube.

Hello Splat Attack… and a chance to SAVE at AnnaBelle Stamps! !

Back today with a card for AnnaBelle Stamps where we are playing with one of our new stamp sets Splat Attack and the best part is that you can SAVE 20% on this stunning set!

I decided not to go with the ‘splat’ idea for this card as I thought it would be too obvious, so I just played with some fab coloured inks and made a pattern instead.  Gotta say this card is incredibly different to the original version I had in my mind and it looked at the bin more than once lol, but I think I saved it, you can let me know.
