Just a quick post today as I am feeling a little under the weather, I have a small bug that's currently travelling through work , unfortunately its the price I pay for working in a Junior school. Small children are notorious for spreading bugs.......
This card is inspired by Kathy's colour palette over at The Lily Pad, the flower is made by stamping my Hero Arts newspaper background onto light card and distressing with Old Paper and Vintage Photo. Its then cut with a flower sizzix die and held together with a brad. The background is also Hero Arts, I have coated the stamp with Scattered Straw and Bundled Sage Distress Stains and stamped onto white paper, next I tore the paper and distressed with some ink.
I am also entering this card in the current Hero Arts challenge "Fabulous Flowers"
I am off to bed now, hopefully I will feel better tomorrow!!

Feel better soon, Sally! I know I'm glad this is Riley's last year in elementary as it means he'll stop bringing home quite so many germs to share :/
I love the dimension of the big flower- the inking's perfect! And the little curly-qs are adorable :)
