Starry, starry night....


Late again!!!  Today's Christmas card was made by Karen Jackson.  Karen demonstrated this beautiful card at the HSNW show a couple of weeks ago. The stamp is from Hero Arts, CG224 Starry Night it was also a very popular card at our demo weekend.

Karen used the Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink Pad.  Has anyone else noticed how this ink fades down once it has dried on the card?  So don't be alarmed if it looks a lot darker when first stamped, it will settle down to become just the perfect blue for a night sky!

It is such an elegant and effective card, with no embossing, it is therefore ideal if you need to make lots!  Stamp the image, mount onto silver mirri card, add the ribbon and fix onto a 6" x 4" dark blue base card, and...voila!!

Thank you Karen!!!!

Well today has been a wet and windy day in Yorkshire, and I can't believe October is nearly over, where has the month gone?  It's getting dark so early now too, we are well and truly in autumn now aren't we!!

Enjoy the colours of autumn while they last!
