Basic Grey Serenade number 6 ..the final…
This is the final in my series of basic grey serenade 6″patterned papers and sticker sheet. It’s special because it’s my husbands Valentines day card.I mounted two graduating pieces of patterned paper on to my card base, and fussy cut some more of the patterned paper to form the band across the bottom. I stamped some shells from my stampin Up By the Sea shore stamp set onto patterned paper, and cut them out too. I mounted the round stickers onto punched circles,and added some netting and twine. My favourite is the Tim Holtz idea-ology corked vial, which I opened before I attached it to the card, and added a handwritten note.I distressed all edges of the papers.The second photo in this post is the state of my craft room table! I left a project unfinished a few days ago, and due to  work commitments haven’t been back in there – I nearly fainted when I went in there this afternoon! I should be ashamed of myself! I have 3 days off now, so first on the agenda is to complete that project! Til tomorrow….
