In the Garden

It has been a week where I have felt that I have been incredibly busy but looking back I don't appear to have achieved very much at all!
I have been catching up with all the 'bitty things' - actually assembling rather than being creative! 
Here's one that I finished this week
 This Stempelglede Vintage Garden stamp ranks amongst those that I like a lot but it doesn't see ink often enough.
And look 😲😲 I even made a matching envie! Unheard of!
Stamped onto watercolour card before painting and I used one of the flourish stamps from the set randomly round the edge before matting onto black card. 
The sentiment is from Altenew.

Hi Viv...sounds like your weeks are petty much like mine...busy but not achieving. It does seem however that you have at least created a card which is more than I have!. It is very pretty and I love that you have done the matching envelope too. Have a good weekend. xx

Love this pretty card. Those pastel colours are perfect. Well I was doing ok until I sat in the garden on Tuesday and got bitten on my foot for my trouble. Allergic reaction so straight on steroid cream and pills. Had foot up for rest of the week to keep swelling down. Today has been the first day that foot hasn't Felt on fire. Hugs Mrs A.

Love your card and matching envelope, Viv! It is a beautiful stamp. I think I need to take a leaf out of your book and do a bit of assembling in the coming week, as there is a craftalanche waiting to happen on my desk!

This is absolutely gorgeous. I really like how you've coloured the image and then kept everything around it black. That is such a beautiful stamp Viv x
