I thought I would do a card as I don't do many now 
I took a blank 8x8 white card cut it to 6.5 x 6.5 then a bit of black 
and cut it slightly smaller then took the stencil and using black star I covered the stencil 
then removed it and left to dry.
once it was dry I glued it to the card then ripped it a small bit and using distress ink pad all over 
to to blend the music card to the rest of the card.
I then took a sentiment from the new Stationer's Desk A4 paper pack.
I scrunched it up and tor it in a few spots and also covered it in ink.
I added a small button butterfly and an old earring to finish.
Hope you enjoyed this card and hope to see what amazing things
you all come up with.

In the pink


Evening to all you wonderful followers and friends
I have been going mad not being able to craft properly 
So I wrecked the front room to find some bits I knew I wanted to do 
a canvas.
As June is the race for life month I thought I would do 
it in pinks.


I painted the canvas with white and pink mixed then I used a pink ink spray
added some bits of worded paper and some bits of a 6x6 paper,
then added paint to them so they faded into the back ground.
I put the ink spray on a sponge and dabbed it and blended it over the canvas 
and the wooden frames and letters,
I then sparkle medium on the 2  frames and added a large gem.
The lady in the center is one I given by Lisa Tyrell some time ago
I add flowers and stick pins all from my stash I made the pins to match.
I added lace and bling down the side and a strip of bling on the top.
And loads of perils and bling also from my stash.
Well I feel better now I done some crafting LOL
Thank you all for stopping by and leaving some fabulous 
love it really dose make me feel good.
Big Hugs and love to all.
