An obvious choice for me - Flowers. I've used the floral stamp from Tim Holtz Dearly Departed on a Gelli plate background. I stamped the image in Versafine Clare Shady Lane ink and then in black ink on white card, fussy cutting the flowers and painting with Inktense pencils, then adhering over the stamped panel. I also added a little extra colour to the leaves with pencils.
The rest of the team have some lovely samples to show, so please pop over to the main challenge page for all the details.
The craft room has been somewhat neglected over the last couple of weeks as Teddy has had tonsils and adenoids removed and grommets placed in both ears, fortunately it was done as a day case, but there were extra school runs and Grandma days for Lucy so Laura could spend time with Teddy, poor little sole, he just couldn't be bothered with his playmate who just wanted to play and fuss over him. Last week he was much better, so it was Grandma days and school pick ups when Laura went back to work - was I glad when the weekend came!
It's back to normal this week and their first Sports Day on Wednesday, which is something nice to look forward to.
Thanks for calling in.

That's beautiful Avril, the flower stamp is gorgeous, beautifully coloured and a lovely soft background to set it off.
Poor Teddy, not a pleasant experience for him, I remember how poorly my son was after he had his tonsils removed- and he was a strapping lad of 16! Glad he's feeling better now and back at school- time for Grandma to have a rest!
