Happiness

Hello to you all,I am sharing a card I made using a new colouring medium,well for me. I treated myself to some Faber Castell Gelato's, and I am so pleased I did. They are so different to anything else I have been using.....Any way my background for this card was produced using them. And I am sure I will improve with practice. The stamp has been clear embossed with black Archival ink.xxx
