Friends with Flair Friday

Well I have finally gone and got myself some Brusho Crystals ,I am not sure why I have never bothered before because they are made just a mile from where I live .....Anyway I did get some and this is the result of my first play.

I must admit they are fun but you don't have a lot of control over what happens so it is a bit hit and miss...I did  get a couple of backgrounds I was happy with.

I have teamed one of them up with a couple of Donna Downey stamps

I am entering this into

Morning Wendy,

Gorgeous card and I so love this Peach colour, just beautiful, it does go well with the Brown. Like you I like different combinations of colour so it is hard to choose though Aqua/Tea/Purple are favourites lol!

Love & hugs

Ah you've been bitten by the Brusho bug too! I hope you wasn't silly and took the top off and sprinkled them everywhere and made a right old mess......like me the first time I used them!
