Believe it or not this card is actually a dusky purple and silver, tried and tried but couldn't get a better photo...sun, shade indoors and out- this is the best I could get! The 'snow banks' don't show up very well either! I came indoors for a while after sitting in the garden (in the shade!!) reading for most of the day...I do love summer, I'm looking forward to Wimbledon next week too :)
I had a little play with stamps and ink making the little Christmas snow scene. The sweet rabbit and 'Believe' stamp are Lavinia, the sleigh and reindeer are not (can't remember the make!) I couldn't decide whether to emboss the word stamp in white or silver...wish I'd chosen the white! This one honestly does look a lotter better IRL....believe!!!
It's starting to cool down a bit now, headache has settled down so I'm off to finish my book.
Thanks for stopping by
have a lovely evening
