Beads

Inks Grey & Blue

The flower is a small single stamp from a transparency set which l stamped masked and repeat stamped then added beads to the centres. I used a blue ink for the sentiment to keep it soft - hope you like it.

Also a lovely stamp set up for grabs.

I love the flower lanterns stamp - no matter how many times you use it it always gives a different look, when dried l added sparkle pen to the blooms to give a little extra shimmer.
Having recently had a 2 week holiday away l have never felt as exhausted as l do at the moment, energy levels are zero and l am really struggling. Perhaps a visit to the docs is on the cards. The grandchildren have two weeks off for easter so they will be with parents so hopefully a bit easier for me.
 Looking forward to some warmer weather soon, just had a bit of time in the garden to do a spring tidy, most of the 1000+ bulbs l put in are making an appearance but so are the rabbits nibbling at the fresh shots :(

Happy Easter to you all xx
