Out and About...

Hello sweet bloggers,

I have coloured in these two images with water colour pencils while I was stamping with Aleeza... 
I have used this stamp umpteen times, yet haven't fallen out of love with it.
The two cards have the same colours but I have sponged them with different inks.
The embellies vary as well...
This is a Penny Black stamp and the first card has been hand torn. All the embellies are from my stash. 

Am going to enter these cards for the following challenges:
The Poodles Parlour - Here come the girls
Inspire me Fridays - Anything goes







The quote above touched my heart - saw it on Face book and thought I should share it.

Taking Aleeza for her swimming class now - seems a tough task as she is trying her best to get out of it. 

Have a wonderful weekend. 

Love,

Monica

Hope the swimming lesson ended up being fun for Aleeza. These are wonderful cards. Each different, the torn edge looks terrific and really love the circles down the edge on the second card.
