thinking of you

As today is a miserable, dull and drizzly day, I decided to cheer myself up with some crafting. I started out working on my next set of tags for the Chocolate Baroque alphatag swap, thanks to Moira finding her AWOL elephant stamps - while the glimmer spray was drying, I made this for the latest Simply stampin challenge, where there was a sketch to follow this week.
The base card is cut down from A4, I think in garden green (really must leave the card in the pack so I know which colour is which!), and the lace ribbon punch in white card, with one strip mounted onto baja breeze card and narrow silver ribbon threaded through.
Centre image is 4x4, brayered background in baja breeze, night of navy, pear pizazz and old  olive inks. the silhouette stamp from 'just believe' stamped in black 3 times across the bottom, the greeting is from 'so happy for you'  SAB set, embossed in white EP.

  3. Glad the walking elephants turned up.That punch is rather splendid threaded with ribbon & I love how that echoes the greyish stamping.

  5. Great interpretation of the sketch and I'm also getting around to making my next three tags for the alpha swap - exciting when they drop through the letter box.
