Into The Woods

Almost the end of March, soon there will be leaves on the trees again and Winter will be behind us.  I made this card however last month, on a wet weekend when the trees were bare and Summer a long way off!

What isn't a long way off however is the next challenge over at MAWTT, chosen by Terrie and she's asking for projects relating to the theme...

Into The Woods.

Now initially I was going to do a woodland creature on my card, but as I rummaged through my real stamps, I came upon this stamp again - it's very simple but I do love it!


So the ink dusters and distress inks came out along with Papermania Capsule Collection papers, and the end result is above!

Challenges;
Brown Sugar - Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Cardz 4 Guys - In the country

Rainbow or Rainbow Colours

Rainbow or Rainbow Colours

So let the fun begin!

For my card I went with a super cute newish Bugaboo stamp which just appealed to me.  A little sad unicorn sat on a rainbow, wishing his dreams could come true... it could just be me sat there the way i'm feeling just now!

Colouring as always by Promarkers and my card is finished with Hobby House pearl strands and corner die cuts.
