A quick share from me today -
But I made this after being inspired by Pinterest - in fact I made two similar but will save the other one for a later share.
Just a simple 'fishnet' stamp partly inked and a few black splatters to start for the background then a die cut piece of foliage, a daisy and one of my fave dies, this big Chrysanth bloom.
All just smooshed through some ink on the craft mat.
That's it!
We are having 4 days away with some friends next week - they also have recently moved house so we all think we deserve a rest - although we are hoping to play in a bowls tournament - first time for nearly 3 years since I have played - and only hoping I can stand up long enough and not cough my head off!
Sharing over at TIOT who's challenge is Spring Colours.
Thanks for looking and I wish you all a Happy Easter. x

Oh Viv, so sorry to hear that you caught the retched virus. Our daughter caught it for the second time last week. She had only been to the doctors for antibiotics and to the supermarket prior to testing positive. She got left with a hacking cough when she got it the first time just before christmas.Had all her jabs and like us keeps outings to a minimum and still not safe. Hope you get over your cough. Enjoy your trip. Card is super duper by the way. Hugs Mrs A.
This is lovely Viv, thats a lovely die and I like how you have used the colours. Hope you feel better after your few days away

The partially stamped and splattered background is just right to showcase these two beautiful blooms. Sorry to hear it is taking you a long time to shake off the nasty cough - enjoy your bowls tournament.

Wow, first of all, Vivilicious, your card is spectacular! I love each element and am pinning! Second, I'm sorry to hear you are still coughing and suffering from fatigue. I hope your trip away finds you feeling tons better and able to enjoy the bowls. It will be wonderful to play again!! Hugs, Darnell
This is wonderful. love that background with the splatters and the lightly inked flowers over the top. It works so well. I hope you have enjoyed your break and you didn't let yourself down in the bowls tournament xx
So sorry to here you have been laid low with the virus Viv and still have the cough and tiredness but hope it will go soon. I love that fishnet stamp which makes a wonderful background to the pretty die cut flower and leaves, and the random smooshed colour looks great, and finishing splatters work well too. x
I love this! It's so gorgeous, the little bit of inking is so pretty. I saw these dies just after I'd bought some others and wished I'd bought these. x
