Rainy Sunday!

So when it chucks it down with rain all day that is a good opportunity to stay in and craft, well after you have done all the chores of course :)
Over at Basic Grey Challenge site there was a recipe. Which I think I have followed! Papers used are Stella Ruby

And the fab challenge blog that is Penny Black Saturday Challenge asked us to use a frame. Now I would have loved to make a frame for an image - but lets say me and craft knives do not get on! So I opted for a framed sentiment using a slide mount (Small cheat I guess!)




Now I am off to watch TV, chill out and get an early night ......... all this relaxing this weekend has me totally chilled out!

Love n Hugs

Bex

Doesn't look like cheating to me - the slide mount is perfect for the frame. Love the use of the stella ruby on the BG challenge card. x
