A Quick Post Before Dinner

I was feeling a little tired so I thought I would whip up a quick card to put me in a better mood before dashin off to cook dinner, so glad I did! I recently went through all of the swaps I received at Melbourne's Regionals in October, and I came across one from a Cheryl Hayes that I particularly liked, so I used her card for my inspiration (because I seemed to have lost my own over the Christmas break!)
I used the Botanical Blooms (one of the new Sale a bration sets), blush blossom, lovely lilac & whisper white card stock, cameo coral, garden green, blush blossom ink plus a little perfect plum for sponging the edges. I got to use my brand new Rough Texture wheel for the back ground and the tag, word window & large circle punches. I really enjoyed making this card, and the sentiment is my theme in my life at the moment - to thine own self be kind, I hope you are too!! TFL!

Love the colours Leonie - it's a beautiful elegant card. My Botanical Blooms set has just arrived - must go and use it!

I really like that card Leonie and may have to case it off you, it's gorgeous. I was going to have a play with that set later on tonight.

Hello Leonie, It was a real kick for me to see you thought enough of my card that you cased it.
When I made that card I was only at the regionals with a friend!
Since then I have become an independant demonstrator for Stampin' Up.
Still have to set up my blog!
I am also moving to Adelaide in Feb, so can not wait to give it my all. You have given me a gr8 boost.
Cheers Cheeza
