Dizzy Daisy

Such a beautiful image to play with over at the Just Us Girls Challenge #585. I’ve had this lace stamp since forever and never succeeded in using it well. I did some partial stamping, added watercolour…. staining the white pearl embossing so I decided to emboss again. No luck, the stain remained. Oh well, better go with it since there was some green shades in the photo. A little section of the Altenew burlap die in kraft card stock and a few die cut daisies completed the card.

I finally got my second vaccin and I am really excited to see our numbers going down. Hope is in the air. I sincerely wish that you are also seeing progress in your part of the world. Thank you so much for stopping by, do take care, HUGz, Joanna

Playday is like payday 😀 I’m so happy that I’m part of the solution for this terrible pandemic.

Today I’m playing to the Less is More #443 sketch #26 theme along with the Color Hue #18 of purple and teal ….to match my new blue gigs in the photo.
