Making a card midweek, whatever next?!

I have managed to make a card, and its not the weekend! Yey! Admittedly I did start by stamping and colouring the image on Sunday afternoon, but I have at last managed to fit in some crafting into an evening. I really must do this more often.....

I hope you like my creation for today - I decided to work backwards. Instead of stamping and image and colouring it and then trying to find papers to match, I picked my papers first and coloured the image to match the papers. Genius! Why didn't I think of it before? Doh!

  2. It's really pretty. I also sorted the paper first and then colour to match as saves so much time but then I have so many papers its not really a problem the other way lol. X
