Sunday morning I took part in Hero Arts Flickr group 90 mins scramble. I really had a struggle. The challenge was to use a frame on your card. I decided I'd use some oxide inks for a background, smooshing on a stamping block ... but oh my goodness....what a mess! After several goes, I gave that a miss.... and then decided to use an older HA stamp called Flower Box. Started by stamping and colouring and then added my sentiment with Versafine Onyx black. But I forgot that this ink takes time to dry - so don't go and trim it up too soon....
Still not 100% happy but it got finished.
My next project was a tag to enter into the current Christmas challenge at StampNation.
I did some testing of different inks for the bells
I'll be sure to be trying out some different colour schemes for my Christmas cards this year.

Poor you, I've done this myself - did you cry or choose the profanities route??? Love both cards. The baubles look lovely in each and every combination - such a cool image, Jo x
You have been busy Dawn, love that bell stamp so pretty and I love it in all your colour ways.
I like both projects Dawn. Those bells are crazy cool. CarolG
What a marathon that first card was Dawn - worth persevering though for the great end result. Love the tag, and your bell colours have such wonderful combinations.
Blessings
