Friends like a Fruitcake?


They said on the radio this morning that it's Blue Monday (Christmas has gone, not pay day yet) so I thought why not make a blue card to cheer you all up and have a GIVEAWAY too!! 


The card is my entry for the Less is More Challenge week 207 where the theme is FRIENDS. I've used some new stamps from Oak House Studio - the Square Grid inked with the new Triple Sky Blues Pigment ink pad which works great on linen card.   I love the blues in this ink pad but a word of warning - do remember which way round your stamp is!!  The Friends like Fruitcake stamp is inked with just the darker blue of the three.  I hope it makes you smile!!  I've also linked up to the Uniko Challenge where the theme is Love and Friendship and Inspirational Challenges where the theme is Ombre.

Whilst I was rummaging in my stamp box I realised I had 2 sets of these stamps and as it is 5 years since I started this blog, I thought I'd have a GIVEAWAY as a thank you for visiting my blog.

So please leave a comment on this post and/or any of my future posts for a chance to win.    I'll leave the Giveaway open for a month so your last chance to enter will be February 16th.  

Good Luck.

    Elaine I believe we all benefit from being soaked in alcohol every once in a while, you can never tell what will happen after a few drinks and some chatter .... great ideas are born out of times such as these.
