Good morning, well here we are on the last day of August...and a pretty good August it's been -here in the SE of England anyway! Not many wet days at all and loads of lovely sunshine, but now autumn is just around the corner...then Christmas will be upon us before we know it!
The optional theme for this fortnight at
Creative Moments is Weddings / Anniversaries, once again we have some wonderful sponsors offering lovely digi stamps as prizes,
Lacysunshine,
My stitch back in twine, and
QKR Stampede.
To make the above card I used this adorable image of two loved up snails courtesy of
QKR Stampede, I love the besotted look on their faces! I coloured them with copics and paper pieced and crackle glazed their shells. The watering can and grass template is from
Sandra's Scrapshop. I added some diecut butterflies, insect border and fence a couple of daisies, and a tiny stamped tag tied on
with twine.
I also made an art journal page using 3 lovely images created by the amazingly talented
Kristyn one of the Creative Moments DT. As you can see these images have an Oz theme, there are loads more available
here.
Thanks for visiting today, hope you enjoy the last day of August!
