Having fun............

Hi, am having fun with some new stamps I bought at the NEC in Birmingham.  Supposed to be making some Christmas Cards but sorta got side tracked..........

Stamps by Inkylicious

Stamps by Inkylicious and Creative Expressions
On both cards Distress Inks and Paint Dabbers have been used, plus Stickles.  The photographs have turned out darker than these tags really are due to the miserable weather we are having.  The tags come unfastened from the brads and can be used as bookmarks.

Lets hope our weather improves and we all have a lovely week.  Thanks for popping in and take care of yourselves. Hugs Annette xx

These are beautiful Annette. Love the images you chose and especially like the sentiments. Great idea to make them usable as bookmarks as they are too lovely to be discarded once the occasion is over.
