Purse for a friend (no Money thou) LOL


Good morning all... well all the snow has disappeared, considering the amount we had, it is unbelieveable that it could go so quickly, mind you... the heavens have opened ! So now we just have loads of the wet stuff instead of the white. oh well... roll on summer. :)


Today is a card I have made for one of my best friends, and yes I know it says Wedding Purse on the description... but I still felt can be used for birthdays too.  The digi image is by Justinklined, and can be found HERE. I cannot beleive that such a simple card took me so long to make lol... but I faffed with different ideas for far too long, I wanted the purse to really stand out, and not be lost amongst various papers etc, as felt there is so much details in the image.  So out came my trust CB folders, and I opted to mirror the design on the purse.   Sadly, when stamping the sentiment dtp I slightly smudged one letter.. grrr... so.. quick fix, as yes you guessed it, I had already stuck the image on... stupid or what !!!! I have embossed lines at top and bottom of card, but guess what... poo photography as per the usual...... hehe

Copics used. R81,R83, R85 R89
G99 G94 G82 G12
E11,E00 E13 E17 E40 E000
Plus copic clear glitter pen and sakura glitter pen.
Righty oh... time to sort self out and debate taking two dogs for a walk soon... had daughters little spaniel for the night.. and feel like I slept in a straight jacket all night... one dog either side, snuggled right in, I couldnt move a muscle... needless to say I certainly did not get cold.... the very opposite... was boiling... today, back absolutely killing me, where I obvioiusly slept at odd angles !!!  however.... lovely to have two dogs back in house, and it certainly not helping my decisionas to whether to have another one or not LOL... But as I have waited a year to get one..... a few more months wont hurt, as want to wait until after my Bali holidays... plus summer much easier to housetrain...  (have to think of these things LOL.

Dont forget Kenny K's Challenge Blog today starts a new challenge and WOW... you should see what the DT's have done.... fantastic girls... all totally fabby cards..The theme this week is Monochromatic.

Oooo purrrrty, that flower really pops.
P.S. you can't give a purse unless you give a coin it's bad luck. Stick 10p inside the card.
