I've been having fun making some more of those scrunched flowers Toby showed me.  Here's one on a super simple base.  Just black cardstock and the elegant lace border punched strip in Crumb Cake with some narrow black ribbon threaded through. 

 I used the Timeless Portrait DSP for the scallop circles that make up the flower. There's a touch of blue on the reverse side of the DSP which adds a nice little hint of colour. 

The base card would be nice with some clear embossing I think - but then it wouldn't have been quite so quick to put together and this was on a 'quick and easy' day. 

I'm having a lovely quiet day today with the house all to myself.  John's at work and the kids went to mum and dad's place yesterday for a sleepover.    Aaaahhh, peace and quiet.  I tidied up yesterday and voila - it is still tidy!   John and I went out for a late dinner last night - to Sassy Foodroom on Mt Alexander Rd, Moonee Ponds.  Nice food, great eclectic decor, friendly service.  Loved it. 

Have a nice day folks. 

Cheers, Sue
