Pin It

DCM: - Blue and Green....

....should never be seen the old saying goes. But don't they work beautifully on cards.


Thanks so much to Gillian and Cathryn for their advice on this card at Craft at Keryn's this morning.


This card started by me finding a tutorial on Splitcoast stampers using 'Stampin' Spots' on gloss card. But would you believe it I have no stampin' Spots. I've used instead some Versacolour cubes from my pre 'SU' days. Versacolour cubes are pigment ink rather than dye ink so I got a far more smudgy background than I intended. But I like it.
