Finally a card & experiment.....

Afternoon peeps, well I finally managed to make a card after my little attack of my condition, I knew it was brewing all week as I did not feel right, but I a feeling a little better today, a big thank you for all your kind messages.

Anyway on to my card and experiment.....  When I was sorting my craftroom out I found a pile of pencils that me mum bought me over 17 years ago when I was in school, called Berol Karismacolor. I remember nagging for these pencils they were so expensive too, I think they were £2-£4 per pencil and had a waxy finish to them, so for a trip down memory lane I decided to have a go colouring with them and I had a bit of turps and a derwent blender stump thing... It is not the best my first attempt and colours not that great but I had a go, oh and some derwent metallic pencils too.


For my card I have used one of Crafty Sentiments brand new stamps that have just been released called Annabel Mermaid....I think it's cute enough for a birthday, valentine with the hearts, a just because, well not sure what I will use it for yet but this card should have been on for Tuesday as Craft Sentiments have a water theme challenge this week so here is my card a few days late!
