Learn to Dance in the Rain

Love this Tim Holtz man!  I combined him with a rainbow background which has been brayered using Kaleidacolor ink and a stirp of embossed card - suing the clocks from the Sizzix range.
It just begs for a quote inside - 'Instead of waiting for the storm to pass - learn to dance in the rain'

A few cards, and a commitment

I so need to get back to blogging, have loads of ideas flowing around my head including tutorials and more, and somehow the days tick by and not enough happens ..... I am keeping up with Facebook, with all sorts of updates, competitions and sneak peaks, so do please Like our Facebook page.

But I also want to get back to blogging, so here are 2 pics of cards I made this week using the latest releases from Sizzix and of course my favourite Penny Black sentiment stamps.

For the wedding - or wedding anniversary card I have used a simple colour pallette of white and gold, an embossing folder and these beautiful tag  nesting dies from Sizzix.  The sentiment is stamped and embossed with gold detail powder.


The little friend card is so simple and features new dies from Sizzix that cut swing cards - and economical too as you can get 2 cards from an A4 sheet.
