Cupful of Love

Hello,  here is a card I made following the guideline for the Crafty Cardmakers challenge.  They have asked for ribbons, fibers, lace or similar to be used.  I made the topper a couple of weeks ago but was unhappy with the finished card so I recycled it.  I much prefer this card!

Well, DH has finished his 2nd job and this week will be the first time in over 18mths that he will be home Tuesday and Wednesday evenings!  It will be lovely but strange at the same time!  He's quite incapacitated at the moment and is seeing the consultant next week so we should know the date for surgery on his elbow then.  Im sure he's going to need it in plaster afterwards as he wont avoid using the arm after the surgery which could result in him being back to square one or even worse!

Pink overload on this one I think!  I distressed the background using ordinary inks and a natural sponge.  Ive been testing out a variety of items with which to distress as suggested by many of you, thank you for the tips and help, it is all very much appreciated!  I wanted to keep this card quite basic as the colour is strong enough.


I used:

Hope you all have a great week, today we're celebrating DH's birthday and am away on holiday Wednesday to North Somerset, so Ive got my fingers crossed for some dry weather!!
