The base is a sheet of MME Quite Contrary Mary Mary - Best of Friends - Play paper, one side is the top half, one side is the bottom half! Ribon wrapped around and greeting stamped seperately and popped behind the image. I hope everyone is having a nice weekend! I was working yesterday but have a day off today :0)

Miss Anya Love

This is the first time I have used this set from The Greeting Farm - available at Dies to Die for (Tracy has all the new ones in too) I am trying to get around to using all my stamps this year! I have stamped her out and coloured her with Copics (Tracy has a ton of these here too) and then cut out and added to base with DST. The base is simply two shades of purple Bazzill basics CS added to a white card blank. I have sprayed the flowers with Glimmer Mist then added these to the corner with a couple of punched MS Frond Branch punchies (which is here) I then added a couple of pins from Whiff of Joy to the flowers. Greeting added to a Stampin' Up! punched out oval which you can get from the lovely Jules.

Just wanted to say thank you to all those who left messages for my first day back at work, it went well and am trying to get back into the swing of things! :0)
