Anyway enough chat, onto a few cards I have had on the go for a couple of days, as there was no chance of any craft time the past 2 days. One of my favourite colour combinations this and just happens to have Authentique's Loyal to match. This is a past MFT sketch but I don't seem to get to them when they are live.
Love this little stamp set from Jane's Doodles - I have come late to liking clouds and gumboots and adore them in these colours.

Hero Arts latest challenge
It is a very sad state of affairs that my stamp collection is so lacking in important HA stamps as sentiments and flowers. I have remedied the sentiment situation with the trip to the Craft Show last weekend, but no flowers did I get. No problem with background stamps though. Tricky technique to do but love the effect.
