Makeesha's Inkspiration #11





Hello, i have been majorly M.I.A for the last couple of weeks, have had no time to stamp and haven't been in the mood!!!! But now i am back and will hopefully make up for lost time - anyway thought i would start with Makeesha's challenge, to me the colours looked grey and white so i have gone with whisper white and basic grey, using urban garden dsp and hostess dsp with petal pizzaz and best yet stamp sets!!! i tried sooo many times to ink up the big flower properly but it just would not play the game today so i had to make do with the best of a bad bunch. Well i had better fly - i have a huge basket of ironing waiting for me - i wish the ironing fairy would come and do it.... wishful thinking, thanks for stopping by.....
