Simple things

I wonder if I'll ever get bored with these Rhonna Farrer swirl stamps, right now I can't imagine life without them. They just live out on my craft desk and never ever get put away, now thats a definate sign of a good purchace. He're a wee card to cheer up a friend of mine, using my rainbow of brads as inspiration, 7 primas and of course, a Rhonna Farrer stamp.

And this is my very first ever entry for the CPS blog sketch of the week, great blog and definately worth a look. its not so easy to tell from the photo but the background card is versamarked using, you've guessed it RhonnaFarrer stamps for that lovely watermarked look, and the pink flower is cut out from the Mambi paper (I suppose you could call that decoupage!) and is lifted on foam tape.
I think this is going to be an inspirational sketch for me. Thanks girls.
