Sweet Summer Wishes

Afternoon peeps

I have been out car hunting this morning and it's not been as easy as I had hoped.  Must of the car dealerships around the area are way out of my budget and I'm not keen on buying privately.  I went into one dealership and as soon as I walked through the gates I was jump on by a dirty looking salesman who then continued to follow me around, I won't be going back there again.  I have a couple of weeks before I need one, so hopefully something will turn up.


Anyway, I have made a sweet feminine card this afternoon.  The digital stamp is called Sakura Cherry Blossom from Star Stampz and it has been coloured using Copics and ProMarkers.


Other materials used are:

White card stock
Digital patterned paper
Crealies Set Of 3 Flowers No. 23 die set
Heartfelt Creations Arianna Lace die set
White lace
Nuvo white crystal drops
