OK, my first post...this is scary. Thanks Grace, for your "idiot's guide to posting".

Michelle and Grace taught me this great background technique called Madras and it's come in handy so many times when I needed a quick card and just stamped an appropriate image onto the already prepared backgrounds.

Cheers,
Judy

  1. Wow, very stunning cards Judy. I just adore the forest type stamp, so if any of the girls know who makes that one and can let us know, I think I will have to put that one on the "wish list".
    That Navy Blue and Yellow colour combination is very delicious!
    Congrats on your first post with pics.
    Cheers

  2. Ohhh...Lovely to see these mounted up Judy. They look very swish! I love them both!

    I think it is Helen's stamp. I also think it was one Grace and I tried to track down...note "try". If anyone can track it down then by all means share...coz we all want it!..still narky Grace got the only sunset left at the show!!!! (especially when I spotted it first!)

    Hope to see lots of posts now you are an expert! And well done to Grace..The best way to learn and remember is to teach someone else.

    Cheers,

  3. Well done Judy! Your cards are gorgeous.
    And it wasn't so scary posting after all was it? You got it right first time unlike someone who will remain nameless hehehe.
    Looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful work.

    Cheers
