Another Be Happy card

I sliced the end of my thumb off yesterday in a cake-related incident; so it's true when they say cake is bad for you! Luckily I have a few cards made to keep me going until my thumb is fully functional again.

Here's another card made with Be Happy, this time in more subtle shades of Certainly Celery, Barely Banana and Perfect Plum. I stamped the spotted tag in Certainly Celery on the same coloured cardstock for a subtle effect. "Enjoy" is stamped in Perfect Plum on Whisper White. The 5/8" grosgrain ribbon is Very Vanilla; I can be quite tight with ribbon when I want to be, as you can see!

  4. Sorry about your thumb - good thing you weren't near your card though. Blood on a card never looks good :)

  6. Cake is never bad for you! Sorry to hear about the thumb injury and glad to see it's not stopped you stamping.

  7. Morwenna - sorry, only just got this comment! And, as you'll see, I've now changed the picture! :) Sadly I don't live anywhere quite so picturesque as that previous picture, which was looking down towards Dovedale. On the plus side, I don't have thousands of tourists tramping through my neighbourhood every weekend!
