Nothing particularly crafty on my desk today, its full of lovely cards and goodies, cos its my birthday.
I had a lovely load of cards, mostly edible pressies, which is somewhat worrying, and some money for crafty goodies. My brothers girl friend bought me a tin of krusty kreme donuts, and my best friend made cupcakes for me, most of which didnt survive the day but the box that one of them was in is very pretty.
On the other bit of the desk are some cards I made with one of the stamps I got at the flea sale at the weekend. I really love this stamp it looks gorgeous stamped in black on a fancy background. The backgrounds here were done with Tim Holtz Distress Inks and then sprayed with some glimmer mist. The darker spots are slate glimmer mist and the paler card has marshmallow glimmer mist which doesnt show in the photo.
The card just sneaking in on the left is also stamped onto a distressed ink background. Its a really old stamp that I was going to get rid of, but I think will have a new lease of life. It too looks good on the inked background and the lady on the stamp can be inked or coloured in copics and layered.
Hope you all had a good day too.
:-)

Happy belated birthday Ally :D Mmmmm am drooling at all that edible yumminess. I didn't even know Krispy Kreme came in tins!
I think the card where you used the old stamp is very nice- you can still use it and make all sorts of interesting cards. Pity to give it away. Patsy from
