I was set a challenge by a good friend of mine, after I complained I felt all my cards lately have been very samey samey.... and even I was getting a bit fed up with them, let alone anyone that pops onto my blog, so.... her challenge was.... and boy this this TOUGH for me.... no more than one D.P, ...... and a simple card. !!!
Ok.... so... thinking cap on... .brainache laters..... ;)... and lots of touchy feely of nearby papers... lol.... I did actually cut one out ready to use... but wayhey..... I didn't use it :) get me... :) I also thought it would be a chance to use an old stamp that hasn't seen the light of day in a long time. (probably because I find this particular one so hard to colour up). Anyway.... this is what I came up with.... be interesting to hear your thoughts on this one, as, I did say... its way off course for me. (and yes , I did find it VERY difficult) !!!! lol
Copics used, (thank goodness she didn't tell me I couldn't use them either ! phew).
