Well i can't believe it, i've hit the dizzy heights - this is my 100th Posting !!!
My peace was disturbed last night when a certain 3 year old and OH came home !! and little one was so excited as he had been to Headingly to see 'Leeds vs Gloucester' (Rugby Union) and Leeds won fortunately, as my OH's brother in laws son plays for them and he took son on the pitch to meet the players.
Todays card is a bit different for me, in the fact that i have used a LOTV image (that i received in a blog candy win), and it's a cutie (will definetly have to go and purchase it) - i've tried a new method for me 'Paper Distressing' - i've had the Tim Holtz tool for a couple of months and have never been braver enough to use it, until now and i like the effect - intially i was also a bit worried that i might have over distressed the image with inks, as there was a section of Tea Dye, that seemed a bit darker than the rest, but after adding Spun Sugar and Victorian Velvet, it now seems to tone in with the colour of the flowers on the paper, what do you think ?
