May All Your Dreams Come True.

I’ve been playing with another fantastic set of stamps from Clearly Besotted (and I am totally besotted with this one!)  It’s called Once Upon a Time and has some super-cute elements in there (like the little crown – squeal) . The little turrets are separate so you can have any colour combo of castle you can think of – obviously I went all out girly on this one!!

{May All Your Dreams Come True}
Stamps: Once Upon a Time (Clearly Besotted)
Ink:Aqua Mist, Raspberry Fizz, Smokey Shadow (PTI), Twilight (Brilliance)
Card: Stampers Select White, Raspberry Fizz, Aqua Mist patterned paper (PTI)
Tools:Stitched Squares (Lil Inkers)

Well I am enjoying enduring a hubby-free week whilst the other half is away skiing in France (it’s a networking trip – not a holiday – yeah right) and must admit I love having the bed to myself, watching the Great Comic Relief Bake off without a word of complaint and generally doing what I want (or what the kids want I should say). I’ll be glad when he’s back but they do say absence makes the heart grow stronger!
