Good morning, I hope you are all well & the sun is shining where you are. Yes I'm in a really good mood today, no idea why I feel so cheery let hope I continue to feel this good!
Anyhoos today I have one creation for you to see, but it's been made to cover two design team cards.
So we have photo to inspire you from The Craft Garden this month & a fabulous sketch from
Try Stampin' on Tuesday for you to follow! Both will be posted at the end of my post or you can go straight to them by click on the links above.
I won this & a few more images months ago from Digi Darla, (who now seems to have closed down, sad news because I do like her images) & I knew as soon as I saw the photo inspiration which image I wanted to use!
Loved colouring this image in, so far away from my normal cutsie/smexy stuff!
