Finally................a card!!!!

Well I have been feeling a little better today with longer gaps between coughing so thought I would have a little play with my new stamp! This card is for the Basic Grey Challenge and Papertake Weekly Challenge. Basic grey was to use this sketch for inspiration: and the PTW challenge was called "seeing spots" and was to use circles or dots or spots or dots on spots or circles in dots......you get the gist! The Basic Grey backing paper is called Phoam from the Phresh & Phunky range and the dotty paper is by Heidi Grace. The image is Sugar Nellie "Talking to the birds". This is my first Sugar Nellie stamp as I have to admit I haven't been too keen on them in the past but I do love the new Leanne Ellis designs and can't wait for more to come! The ribbon is from my stash as are the mini gold gems. The flower was a lovely pastel pink but I inked it brown to coordinate with the backing card.

I hope you like this as it is a little different from my normal cards, maybe all this nose blowing has cleared the brain and paved the way for some new inspiration!?!?!?!?
