I have made a card or two for LIM, Chrissie and Mandi have challenged us with a one layer card and they said The theme for your cards this week is
LEAVES
I had some fun with this one, my stamp is from Elusive images, Wild Meadow and this is one of the ferns, sentiment from Hero Arts, Live Life. Ink is Adirondak rainbow pad Cabin Fever.
The second version uses a PTI Mat Stack 2 set and VersaColor rainbow set, Limone, great colours,
I'm still struggling to get back to complete health. Went away with my friends at the weekend, we had a gorgeous little cottage in Stratford-Upon-Avon, it was so cute. A two up two down which had originally been a one up one down LOL even after they extended into next door it wasn't big!! The weather was brilliant, warm and sunny.
But I was feeling rough and we came home early, such a shame. It's a gorgeous place to visit with lots of history, we saw some of the town and Shakespeare's legacy but need to do it all again now :0) SOOON!!! LOL

Fab cards as usual Gay, love the second stamping of the fern on the first card and gorgeous autumn colours on the second design :)

Hi Gay, sorry to hear you're still having health problems - hope things look up soon.
You were only a few miles down the road from me at the weekend (I live in Warwick, quite near to the castle) and yes you're so right when you say its a lovely area - problem is when you live somewhere I don't think you fully appreciate it.
Anyway loving both cards you've done for LIM this week.
Take care

Love your two leafy cards.

Gorgeous leaf cards...very nice!
I love ferns and these are no exception! Lovely cards both.
Hi Gay, I love your fern stamps they are so delicate & you've stamped them beautifully. A great OLC. Sorry that your little break had to be cut short, I hope you're feeling better now. Me an' hubby have visited Stratford twice & I agree that it's a very interesting place. If you manage to go again, I recommend a visit to Ann Hathaways cottage. Your little cottage looks delightful, we stayed at a Premier Inn. lol.

Hi Gay
Beautiful cards as always but just feel gutted to be reminded that I left my adirondak inks on their side and all the colours ran into each other. Must find some more and have a go at these cards they are fantabulous! I sooo love your style, classy and always elegant!
Sorry you're not feeling so well, hope you're better soon

Hope you feel better soon. It is a good reason to do it again real soon.
The cards you made are great anyway. I especially love the second one.
Sorry to hear you're not firing on all cylinders yet Gay, I'd never know it from your creative output lol, those cards are both gorgeous, the overlaid circles look fab and love the colours of your ferns. Hope yo enjoyed your weekend and you keep getting better
