Catch a fallin' star!

Hello all - how's your weekend going? Hope you've enjoyed it up to now!  Just all the usual jobs for me - but I'm determined to squeeze in some crafting time today as well.  I've been busy knitting in an evening just lately - and been quite enjoying it!  I think winter evenings are designed for craft projects lol.  I'll share the results of my efforts with you soon - I'm nearly finished!  I'd crocheted a small throw for my daughter - she wanted one for her bed.  But then thought I'd try some knitting as I haven't really done any for a while.

Anyway, I promise I won't do a long waffling post today!  I thought I'd try something different today so I made a centre stepper card - following instructions from lovely blogger Sue Bearhouse and I've used a Tilda stamp that needed to see some ink (I think I've only used it once or twice - and it's so nice to colour!)


I've coloured Tilda with copics and added some Stickles


The papers are from LOTV, as are the sentiment tags. I've added some stitching, a doily flower from DooHickey with a pearl brad centre. The star flourish is from Joanna Sheen, and there is a 'precious heart' from Memory Box.


Hope you like it! 
And I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Back soon,
Kim x 

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:-

  2. Fantastic card Kim, I've been trying out some 'folded' cards recently, have made a magic' card which I'll show soon and this one is on my to do list. I have to say I LOVE the way you've coloured her hair, that colour is gorgeous and it looks so silky and shiny. Hope you're having a great weekend :) xx
