My hubby and I are celebrating our Golden Wedding Anniversary today. 50 years.... were does the time go!
A new Allsorts Challenge begins today and Gail has chosen the theme 'Something Fishy..... Ocean, Fish, Gulls etc'. I was attempting to blitz my craft room and I came across this image I stamped a while ago on an inky background. I thought it was time I made it into a card and this theme seemed the perfect time to use it.
The stamp is Lavinia 'Sebastian the Seahorse', stamped with Versafine Clair 'Nocturne'. The background was made with Distress Inks, sprayed with a little water. The sentiment is a stamp from Stampin' Up 'Best Year' set and I added three turquoise sequins to finish off my card.
There are lovely prizes from Lavinia stamps to be won.
(Please note, we (Lavinia) cannot provide exchanges/replacements/refunds for any products received through this third-party giveaway)
I am joining in the following challenges:
Sebastian is certainly an excellent choice for the challenge - great background. Congratulations on your Golden Anniversary, have a great celebration.
