Sneaky Peep -Time For Tea Designs

Good evening I am here with some exciting News.

Jo has some awesome Stamps Dies and Stencils for sale exclusive to Create & Craft for the month.  Then they will be in the shop.

So i am her with one of the sets called Butterflies which has the matching dies too.

For this card I actually chopped her legs off to fit into the die which is also on sale. the flower & Butterfly is part of the set so is the sentiment along with many others.

Bunny Possum Easter Fun available from the shop Here

I colour the image with promarkers and used inks for the sky.

Added a few gems for sparkle
