Well I genuinely am AMAZED that I was even able to do this page today! I was feelin' soooooo crappy yesterday - seems to come and go in waves but just won't go completely - and today I was feelin' a bit better. That said I had a gift I wanted to make for someone sweet so I sat and gently stamped my heart out today. I had in mind to use those adorable WM 'homespun hugs' stamps and grabbed these bright Cosmo Cricket papers to work with. I couldn't be happier with the outcome!
This page turned out sooooo pretty I am seriously gonna struggle to part with it. In fact I already have in mind to recreate it so I can have a copy myself but sadly I've exhausted this paper so mine will just have to be different.
I made a rough sketch of what I wanted and I just lurve these flower stamps. I based my sketch on an old page I did a few years ago that I really liked but kinda wanted to bring up to date and recreate so this time around I added words along my floral border and a further border at the bottom.
I have been desperate for the alphabet set from WM for some time but just kept forgetting to add it to my order each time. How crazy is that? I drive myself carzy at times!!! This was the exact reason I wanted the stamps - so I could add lots of lovely text to my pages.
I am lovin' the 'folk art' kinda feel these colours and stamps gave my page.
Every single stamp I used was WMS (that was the whole idea) with the exception of that 'zigzag' stamp. I can't recall who it's made by and I know mom sent it to me from an internet order years ago but I use it again and again and again. I love stitching on pages whether it's for real, stamped or even faked LOL!
Well part with this page I must so as soon as someone takes me to the post office (still can't walk by myself just yet) it's going into the post. Hope she likes it!
Gotta go - hubby's just arrived home and needs the computer.
Big HUGS!
