I hope the sun is still shining where you are - what a difference a week makes! Yesterday was another fab day, when I walked the dog along the coastal path today and looked down to the beach it could have been any beach in Spain - though I suspect the sea was freezing! - hundreds of kids, tents and sandcastles galore- oh the sunshine always makes me happy and I love to be out and about in it!
Today's card is my DT card for Inky Impressions challenge and the theme is
Die cuts and punches
I decided to go all out and die cut everything!- layers, flowers,leaves,tag and even a shaped card but disaster of disasters my Grand Calibur decided to fall to bits half way through! - I could have cried. I heard something inside drop into the bottom and the handle jammed, I'm going to have to work out if I can open it up and put it back together. Luckily I have a sizzix as well but it means messing about with shims to use the spellbinders - none-the-less - for the love of an Inky DT card I persevered and got it all done.
This is what I did.....
