Now Dont Faint.....

and don't get over excited either..I'm afraid i'm not stopping long...

I just thought i'd stop by to say that Yes i am still alive, and Yes i am still wrapped up in all things ALteReD

BUT...i have created something this is partly cute!!

 I thought i'd share this fathers day card with you as although its kind of a distressed affair, it does contain one of the very delightful and very cute LOTV images

Created using a lotv boy stamp, a woj fence stamp, and a see-d's alpha set, distress inks, bottle tops and old paper pages.

A short and sweet post, from a short but sweet host.. Sorry my cute chums for neglecting you but you must follow your heart sometimes.. and mine right now is full of distress {ink that is}

SS#60 & AS #10

Here is this weeks fab sketch from Sketch Saturday that i used for me card. Now you'll prob think me mad but i looked at this and the 1 thing that came to mind was that the side shape looked like a chop {as in lamb} and that really was the whole inspiration for the card.

I also found a great prompt from All Sorts which was to "Only use 1 of everything on your card" which i found was slightly harder than i had first thought it might be!

As you can see i used 1 red piece of core'dinations card to create my "chop" shape.

1 piece of gold paper, some of which i punched using my 1 MS loops punch.

1 image {panduro} i did try to use only 1 colour but it looked naff so i had to use 3 in all, but it was with 1 type of medium which was distress re'inkers.

1 sentiment embellishment, of which i used pieces from the left over card and gold paper and 1 ribbon.

I know i've slighty bent the use of "one" of everything in this card but i'm hoping it still counts lol

Thanks for stopping by x
