The things I love

Blue and Yellow Flowers

This is a stepper card I have just made for a commission its for a 60th birthday. My friend who has asked for it asked for flowers. This is a LOTV stamp and I decided rather than use Promarkers and Copic pens as usual but to colour it with distress ink markers. I really enjoyed colouring the flowers and I think the design is suited to  water colours . The colour scheme works well and I always think these stepper cards look so special .

As its for a special birthday I have boxed the card and this is the decorated box

I have been up early today as I needed to  take my car for service so thought I'd do  this post while  I have a coffee. I hope you are all enjoying your week I'm busy for the rest of the week doing Local Authority appeals so not much time for my blog or crafting. Never mind always next week.
