Yummy new Bildmalarna stamps

Hellloooo, its a beautiful day outside and I know I should be out there pulling a few weeds... but I wanted to share this card first. I made it last night while skyping to Lou. I moaned the whole time about not getting it right.... not sure why I don't like this card... maybe its the colours?
Anyway.... this is one of my new Bildmalarna stamps and flowers I got from Debs Creations.. she has a heap of yummy stamp ranges to choose from including the new Bildmalarna Christmas Collection.

Draggy's All Framed Up

Hi Lou here with Trace's M4M creation for this week.... this gorgeous Draggy frame. Unfortunately Trace's internet is down and has been all week so she emailed this to me from her work to post..... hmmmm lucky I get paid in sweet sweet stampin goodies and quality cocoa.lol.

The frame was a cheapy one she found in a discount store and she has covered it with patterned paper, she has also used a chipboard flourish in the corner and her new butterfly punch. She has coloured Draggy with copics of course and attached him with foam mounts.

Hope you will all join me in wishing Trace a speedy recovery from her internet issues.
