Addicted to Stamps - Make Your Mark Challenge 2

Hello everyone.  Well, it's that time of the week again and it's our second Make your Mark challenge over at Addicted to Stamps.  So the world's your oyster........... as long as you use markers of some form or other!!!  lol

My card is actually for a friend who has recently had a hip replacement (hence the corny sentiment!!!).  I've used a House-Mouse stamp from Joanna Sheen's Get Well Soon set and coloured using Flexmarkers.  I've also used Atyou Spica pens to add a bit of glitter.  I then cut out the image using Spellbinders book pages die and made it into an easel card.  Backing paper is from the JS House-Mouse inserts CD.  I added some flower soft on the bunch of flowers the mouse is offering up, some ribbon and pearls.  The sentiment was computer generated.

Please pop on over to the Addicted to Stamps blog to have a look at the great inspiration the Design Team have provided.  We look forward to seeing all your amazing projects.

Thanks for dropping by.

  9. yes the baskets were let me see, round oval shaped very pretty proper baskets and a gorgeous ribbon tied into a bow but not really big enough to squeeze in my 12 x 12 stack of GCD Studios Paris Nights papers let alone the over filled wallets of card and some :)

    so sorry wish you were nearer then maybe you could have come too
    Hugs Kate xx
