I've just gone for a circular card - drew round a small plate with gold pen and cut out leaving a nice gold border. The main stamp is Oak House Studio's Walesby Flourish stamped in Manganese Blue Archival and the words round the edge are from a Hero Arts Friendship Messages set. I do prefer rubber stamps, but one of the advantages of clear stamps is that you can bend them on the block to match the curve of the card. I've just finished with some white organza.
Well are we going to win Eurovision this year? Sat blogging whilst watching the Hump - sounds a good ballad but I think the ending spoilt it!! Anyway thanks for looking at my card.
Very elegant card! (while writing this, I am watching the end of the eurovision, I hope Russia wins)
