On a high note check paper

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Fabulous card for your Grandad.... Love it....

I think you got the inking just right Lucy, sure your Granddad will love his special card.
ReplyDeleteHope the migraine eases, can totally sympathise being one who has more than a few each month. Just remember to remove the migraine patch before you have visitors, I've forgotten more than once !

This is just perfect for your Grandad, Lucy. I love this adorable James Bear image and your papers look great with him. You've certainly cracked the Distress Inking - it gives a lovely vintage feel to your card.
