Hi ya everyone I hope you are all okay. Its been a little while since I've been on here. I have been crafting but its been a bit hit and miss. The kiddies have broken up from school now and I always find the last few weeks a bit hectic with visiting new classes and teachers, viewing work for the last term and various other school related things so it should slow down a little now and I can take a breath.
Anyway, I've popped on to show you the card I made for my mum. I wanted to go for a shabby/distress sort of look but again not really sure I've hit it off. I love this style but I'm finding it really hard to achieve it. The image is coloured with my new Tim Holtz distress markers. Loving these I must say but it is still a little hit and miss as to whether it goes right, a lot of images have ended up in the bin in disgust and this one was the first one I was happy
with.
