Congratulations Tracy :-) Please email me so I can pop the stamps in the post to you :-)

This week the theme is ,,,

BEACHY COLOURS ( sun, sea, sand)

We are sponsored by Funky Kits and this week they are offering 4 fabulous stamps for one lucky entrant !! Woo Hoo !! :-)

For my card I used this lovely ‘Rory’ stamp and a brolly stamp from a Simon Says Stamp exclusives set. I stamped the brolly and masked it to stamp Rory underneath, then decoupaged the brolly ( no need to have masked really !! ) I coloured the image with Copics and inked the edges with Stormy Sky and Spiced Marmalade distress inks. The papers are from American Traditional Designs, Beach Fun and I added a Whimsey ticket, stamped with a LOTV sentiment, a Basic Grey button, some twine and a few Robins Nest Dew Drops and a bucket brad to finish.Of course there is a dab or 2 of my compulsory star dust stickles here and there too :-)
