Good Morning !!!!!

Good morning from a very wet Sheffield, It is no joke now where has our summer gone, another year of no summer!!! Well you won't see me now for a couple of days we taking ourselves off to the Wirral, we are helping our youngest son decorate his flat, so off we go armed with ladders and paintbrushes.

My card today uses a Tilda image coloured with Promarkers,the swirly backing paper is a free download from Jak Heath it is gorgeous and is in different colours,get yourself over there . The Gingham and dots backing paper is from Pink Petticoat.
I have distressed the edges of my paper added some ric rac which I am really into at the moment added some flowers and pearls. I do hope you like it.xxx

See you when I get back!!!

Gorgeous card Doreen, love the backing paper and the image is coloured beautifully!

It has been very wet here in Bolton too boohoo. Really strange weather here at the moment, I work in Salford and yesterday the sun was shining brightly one minute and then it suddenly started hail stoning and thunder and lightening!! Very strange for August!!
