Parchment Practise

I recently spent a very restful week in Menorca getting down to some serious parchment practise in this lovely setting (ignoring the dates on the photos, I think the camera needs adjusting).  This is one of the pieces I finished off when I got home, I hope I am managing to master the white work technique, anyway it looks better than my first attempts.

I am entering this card into the June Clarity Stamp Blog Challenge Masculine theme. 

The sun shone and we ate far too much food but I can't think of a better place to practise.

Thanks for looking, your comments will be very welcome.

Decoupage Shoe

A card I made last month for my Daughter's birthday using some lovely decoupage papers I bought ages ago from House of Zandra and flowers made with a Clarity Stamp flower stamp, coloured with Promarkers and coated with Glossy Accents for a shiny finish.  The leaves were also stamped and coloured and I cut a die cut florish to finish off the decoration.  The sentiment has been stamped using a set of word stamps from Honeydoo.

Thanks for looking your comments will be very welcome.
