Well its hard to believe its Friday once more..........and hey what a Friday !!!! Andy Murray is playing in the semi-final at Wimbledon today and I just cant wait !!!!!! Up early to get organised so that my tasks are complete and I can sit and relax.............................enjoy!!!!!!
Below is a card that I made for my mum and dad's Wedding Anniversary............the colours have not shown up to well as it is a very bright, colourful project. ( need to improve my photo skills)
Distress Inks were blended and then flicked with water to distress the background and the edges were torn with TH paper distresser. I then stamped various images using the JOFY stamps, set 11, from Paper Artsy. This is the first time I have used these stamps and they are so versatile, in that you choose your own layout/design.

The florals were coloured with various Distress Inks and Promarkers, keeping it sunny and bright.
To add further detail and depth I adhered some torn book pages.
Hoping to catch up with you all over the weekend and whatever you are doing.......................Have A Good One xxxx
Love this Annie! The addition of the torn pages peeping through adds such a clever twist to this card. I bet it was so well received too. Enjoy the tennis and your weekend. Hugs, Jenny x
