Muse 123





One of my favourite challenges is back after a wee short break so just had to play along today and
Ok I know that when you first look at my card you'll wonder where my inspiration came from...apart from the cherries that is... of Joan's stunningly simple but oh ever so gorgeous card !
This was one that evolved as I went along so the cherries drew me straight away  love the sentiment of this SU stamp, SO true!!
I stamped two and cut out the bowl to pop up like Joan's cherries,used stitched rectangle instead of scallops and then matched some  DP to the colour of my bowl ,chose spotty to mimic the spots on the envelope.
Not convinced ???...to be honest neither am I just feel it lacks something ,and no not just some glue on the corners!But I should also have been packing not faffing about with this but you know how it is ladies ,cards win every time :)

On the wee small hours of Sunday morning we will be heading off on our Baltic cruise...if I manage to get to grips with etickets,packing and not running around like a headless chicken that is!
We have got out of the habit of holidays abroad as we have been tending to have holidays close by as the boys have needed us to do things for them over the last few years ,so I will admit to feeling quite daunted but I'm sure it will all work out....how hard could it be????
(and Susan if you are reading this I hope you had a brilliant time in Australia!)
See you all in ten days!

Thanks for taking the time to look
