Inky backgrounds


Morning everyone, time for a new challenge at Allsorts where Ellie is our host, prizes come from Polkadoodles and Oakwood and will be drawn on 26th January.

My MS flare has rendered me pretty useless and lots of increased pain, so no crafting and apols only comments c&p ones. My regular stay at the pain clinic for treatment was brought forward and hoping it will get me going again. 

I've managed to find suitable cards for upcoming themes thanks to my TV/DT un-blogged samples and above using AALL and Create 904 stamp set and stencil 161. 


This one is also for the current Path of Positivity, Lavinia stamps and sentiment from one of my own inspirational sets called Believe available from Stamp Addicts or Create and Craft TV.

  2. Two super cards and I particularly like the colour choices on the first one - that pop of blue on the flower petals is perfect with the background. Take care

  6. Two beauties once again. I love the colors on the first card with the #2 and wordy background and the scene you created on the 2nd card is just dreamy! I love the matching envie too! I'm so sorry to learn you're in much pain, but hopefully with the right treatments you'll soon be leaving that discomfort behind. Take care of yourself!

  14. Ciao cara Brenda, spero che il dolore passi presto adesso che le terribili procedure sono state fatte! Abbi cura di te e cerca di riposarti più che puoi...
    Due creazioni davvero meravigliose, e come sempre di grande ispirazione!
    Adoro la palette luminosa della prima card con quel fiore stupendo e lo stencil! Il cordino rustico con la targhetta in metallo è perfetto!
    La card con la scena della volpe nella ghirlanda è bellissima, e adoro quel sentiment!!!
    Le buste coordinate rendono le cards ancora più speciali e professionali!

    (((Ti abbraccio ))) a presto!
