Afternoon folks from a rather grey and dull Hampshire.
Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
I ditched the housework this morning in favour of finishing off a card I started in the week for the Black & White only challenge over at House Mouse & Friends. Sounded simples right.....Oooohhh how wrong can you be, this was much tougher than I thought.!! First the temptation to colour the mouse was quite difficult - he still seems a bit 'naked' but I'm getting used to it. Then I didn't realise how many different variations of black papers there are when you get them together. Got my act together and then found my small white flower collection seems to have disappeared so I ended up cutting my own flower centres with nesties carnation dies! Finally got to taking the pictures and the camera wanted to use the flash and got stroppy and added a pink tinge to things when I turned the flash off!!! Anyway, here is the finished result:
I got there in the end!!
Thanks for looking today and enjoy the rest of the weekend!!
