Good evening my lovely friends in blogland and I hope you are still enjoying this marvellous weather wherever you are in the world. It has been absolutley gorgeous here again today so Graham and I have been out in the garden all day trying to get it in good nick for the summer. Looking better than it was earlier today but not quite there yet.....
I made this card earlier this morning with another of my new Sassy stamps - ain't she a sweety?
I hope I haven't offended anyone with my sentiment - I wanted it to be funny so spelt the name of a national optician's incorrectly and also put the last few letters upside down....does it work for you as it did me?
As usual I coloured her with PMs and then, in order to qualify for four challenges I recycled by using clear nailpolish on her lenses and also on the apple and I think it worked a treat - the reason I had to improvise is that my local craft shop is c**p at stocking things like glaze, good DST, stamps - in other words if you want to decoupage you are all right he he - but I am hoping to get to Barleylands in Essex sometime over the Easter weekend and there is a fabulous jam-packed shop there with absolutely everything I could ever need (apart from Simply Sassy stamps). Back to the lenses now - it is very hard to see in the pics but if you look closely you can see it shining.
I am entering this one into the following challenges:~
