Beautiful Iris

 Morning and I bought an AALL&Create Iris stamp that someone was selling on a FB decluttering page and couldn't wait to use it. I stamped it onto a smooshed background I found,then coloured it with promarkers,doodled round the borders and added a number strip from inside a kitchen roll.The strips of p.paper were cut from the front of a Paper Favourites pad and images were cut from same paper.The sentiment was also cut from a paper pad.I love iris flowers and had a lovely pale blue which has diappeared last couple of years but have a healthy patch of white ones which are absolutely years old.

 Morning and time for the mid month inspiration post for the ATG/Autumn Colours challenge at

 Stamping Sensations and yes another Christmas card!

We will be announcing some challenge changes, so please make a note to check our new challenge post on 5th November.

I used three stamps from a Pink Frog stamp set,coloured with Faber Castell Polychromos pencils.I stamped onto a background I made with three oxide colours on a stamping block and sprayed with water-made about six so more to come lol.Distress ink round the edges and matted onto kraft.The Robin circle sentiment is a stamp from an AALL&Create stamp set.I used inspiration from here for the background.

Just to let everyone know who asked about John -he has had a check up at Castle Hill hosp they have changed his meds and another one soon for another heart scan, also been referred back to memory clinic to check on his Dementia meds-he says he feels okay but at the moment having more bad days then good  :(  x x
