Gingersnaps Yahoo Recipe - A Tag Easel Card



Hi, thought I would have a go at the Recipe Challenge over at the Yahoo Group at Gingersnaps.

Never done a recipe before, well cooking ones yes but not this sort.........so have probably got it all wrong.....but what the heck I had fun making this Tag Easel Card. The ingredients are 1 Sparkle, 1 Crown and 1 Red. Am not sure if you can have other things on it, but mine has...lol

This luckily also fits the new Just for Fun blog where they are asking for Hearfelt Wings.

The stamp is from Art Journey with Red, Gold and Black Paint Dabbers plus Glitter.
Oh well back to the kitchen for me and get our very late Sunday lunch served. Will catch up with you all later. Take care, Annette x
