Garden themed card.

This is my latest card. I scanned a paper napkin using photoshop and printed it out as a background. The watering can is an old creative cut out by Carolines. The other embellishments are by papermania.

Finding something different....

Finding something different to craft with is quite tricky when you're a bit strapped for cash. I think I've come up with quite a good idea though with some toys from yesteryear. I found a 'Picture Plates' toy by Tomy in a charity shop. I had a fashion wheel as a kid and a similar plate type toy which I still have.

The little plates managed to go through my die cutting machine and so gave me an embossed design was after. Now I think I will try as many backgrounds as possible.
