I DIG YOU

Morning everyone.   I don't seem to have had chance to sit down and play around in my craft room lately but today I have set aside some time to do so.  For my card today I have used a favourite stamp from MFT as it is getting towards that time where I will be spending a lot more time in the garden.  I also tried a bit of paper piercing which I have not done for ages......

PUG HUGS

Morning everyone.   I have a card to share with you today using a new stamp set from Newton's Nook.  Thank you Tara @ Seven Hills Craft for your amazing customer service.  I am more of a cat person hence my fondness for Newton's Nook but could not resist this little Pug set.  I thought it would make a great card for my niece who is not really a girly girl.
