Second Card for the Day

Well this is my second card today and is one of the few that I have managed to do these last few days. This card is for the Cute Card Thursday Challenge the theme is to use letters or numbers on your card, Ok I have added two chipboard letters that say HI I have coloured them in promarkers to match the colour combo that I chose for this card. The image is from the 'Shy Bear' range and one day I hope to add to this one because they are so lovely. I have used the water colouring technique for this one with a combination of Inktense pencils and Lyra's. The backing paper is Basic Grey and I have added some pearlescent diamond effect paper that I punched with my Martha Stewart border punch added a ribbon and some flowers. Hope you like it. I may not be around for a couple of days as I am being paid an all to frequent visit from my depression but I know I will be back soon Love & hugs to all.

Suzanne said...: Everything looking fabulous as always, Hunny.
So sorry to hear that you aren't feeling great. It's a big pain in the backside when it takes a hold and there isn't much you can do except try and pick yourself up. I know thats easier said than done.

I am thinking of you as I am sure that everyone else is also.
Hope you're back soon
Hugs
